Despite giving up a solo homer, Floyd (2-3) picked up the win in Saturday's wild walk-off victory over the Red Sox. He struck out one during his only inning of work.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran isn't pitching as well as he did from April to mid-May, but he is seeing plenty of opportunities to get some stats. The game was tied when he gave up a home run to David Oritz, so Floyd was not only lucky to earn a win, but even more fortunate to not be tagged with the loss. Manager John Gibbons has praised Floyd repeatedly for being a reliable arm early in the year out the team's struggling pen. In 18 appearances this season (22.2 innings), Floyd has picked up two wins and three holds while maintaining a slim 3.18 ERA.
