EDGE Analysis

Blach entered the game with one out and the bases loaded in the fifth inning, replacing German Marquez, and while he allowed a sac fly to Jonathan Villar, Blach eventually got the job done when Clint Frazier flied out to center. The sixth inning was far more comfortable and he retired the side in order. In the end, Blach needed just 21 pitches to record five outs and claimed his first win of the campaign. Through two appearances, he has one win, one save and 5:2 K:BB through 5.2 innings.
