Andrew Heaney Gets Back in Win Column
Andrew Heaney did not allow a run over 6 2/3 innings in his team's 7-0 home win against the St. Louis Cardinals. The veteran scattered three hits, walked one, and struck out seven to notch his fourth victory (4-7) in 17 starts. Heaney had a no-hitter going through five innings and allowed no runs in an outing for the third time this season, but first since Apr. 23. It was a nice bounce-back effort after letting 15 runs cross the plate over his last two appearances. He was due for some regression, and it hit him hard, considering he held a 2.91 ERA at the end of May. Heaney sits at 4.16 now, to go along with a 1.20 WHIP. He'll carry those metrics into his next trip to the mound -- a road meeting with the Seattle Mariners this weekend.
