Clayton Richard pitched a solid game in Friday's victory over the Rockies, allowing three runs on eight hits over 6 1/3 innings. He walked two and struck out two on the night. He cruised through the first five innings, allowing just one run, but served up a pair of solo homers to Jordan Pacheco and Wilin Rosario in the sixth. He'll head into Wednesday's start against the Dodgers in Los Angeles with a 12-12 record, 3.74 ERA and underwhelming 93 K's in 190 1/3 innings.
