Anderson (6-10) allowed one run (no earned runs) on four hits, struck out seven and walked two over five innings in a victory over the Pirates on Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Andrew McCutchen, who reached on an error, scored Pittsburgh's only run off Anderson. The right-hander started by striking out the side in the first and set a new season-high with seven strikeouts. He was good, but this is also the eighth start where he failed to pitch into the sixth inning. Anderson has a 5.13 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and 81 strikeouts in 100 innings.
