Nick Pivetta Sharp in Victory
Nick Pivetta (7-2) collected his seventh win of the season Sunday in an 8-2 decision against the Arizona Diamondbacks. Pivetta surrendered just two runs on two hits and tallied nine strikeouts against one walk over seven innings. It was a much-needed return to form for Pivetta, who combined to allow nine earned runs over 10 innings in his previous two outings. The 32-year-old is now up to seven quality starts this season with a 3.40 ERA and 88:22 K:BB through 79 1/3 innings. Pivetta is scheduled to get the ball against the Kansas City Royals on Friday.
