EDGE Analysis
Duke was part of the three-pitcher attack manager Mike Matheny opted to deploy in the ninth inning, as he disposed of Jarrett Parker to get the second out with Brandon Crawford on second. It was the fifth consecutive scoreless effort for the veteran southpaw, who yielded runs in only two of 13 August appearances. The 34-year-old continues to see a brisk workload and has lowered his ERA from 6.75 to 5.59 over the aforementioned scoreless streak.
