Chen allowed two runs on one hit and three walks through six innings against Pittsburgh on Thursday. He struck out five, and didn't factor into the decision.

EDGE Analysis

Chen carried a no-hitter into the final three frames, but he crumbled after Jung-Ho Kang hit a leadoff double in the seventh, and in the end he didn't factor into the decision. Chen dazzled through the first six innings, and he will look to repeat that type of performance in his next start against the Twins on the road Wednesday.
