EDGE Analysis

While the Nats failed to provide enough run support in an eventual 3-1 defeat, it was an impressive outing from Parker, who set a season high in strikeouts while allowing just one run on Michael Toglia's sixth-inning homer. It's an encouraging bounce-back effort from Parker, who gave up six runs in just 3.1 innings against the Marlins his last time out. Overall, the left-hander sports a 4.59 ERA with a 1.32 WHIP and 58:31 K:BB across 15 starts (80.1 innings) this season.
