Cole (2-2) allowed four runs but just two earned on eight hits over six innings Tuesday in a win over the Rockies.

EDGE Analysis

Thanks to a passed ball and an error, Cole managed to squeeze in the quality start. Even though he struggled to miss bats like he usually does (six swinging strikes, three strikeouts), Cole limited the Rockies to mostly weak contact. The only extra-base knock of Colorado's eight hits was a Nolan Arenado home run. That home run was the first Cole has allowed this year, a big reason why he owns a sharp 2.78 ERA.
