Davies (11-7) gave up three earned runs on seven hits and a walk over five innings in Saturday's 11-3 victory over the Cubs. He struck out five.

EDGE Analysis

The young righty was solid against a dangerous Cubs lineup, throwing 54 of 86 pitches for strikes and inducing 14 swinging strikes overall. Davies troubles were limited to the first inning, when he gave up an RBI triple to Kris Bryant and a 388-foot two-run shot to Chris Coghlan. He settled down from that point forward, notching his second victory in his last three decisions. Davies will try for two in a row when he takes on the Reds next Saturday.
