Yamamoto (8-7) took the loss Monday against Milwaukee, allowing five runs (three earned) on four hits and two walks with no strikeouts over two-thirds of an inning.
AnalysisYamamoto retired two of the first four batters he faced before allowing a three-run homer to
Andrew Vaughn, a single to
Isaac Collins and a walk to
Brice Turang. It seemed Yamamoto would get out of the inning without another run scoring, but a throwing error by
Mookie Betts extended the inning. Manager Dave Roberts elected to remove Yamamoto after 41 pitches, marking the right-hander's shortest start in his two-year MLB career. In his last six outings, Yamamoto owns a 3.64 ERA and a 32:11 K:BB across 29.2 innings. He'll look to get back on track against the Giants this weekend.
