EDGE Analysis
Rodriguez allowed at least one baserunner in each of the first four frames, but he kept the Tigers off the board and was pulled after retiring the side in order in the fifth. It was the rookie's best performance of the season, and he lowered his ERA from 6.91 to 5.12. He currently sports a 25:10 K:BB through four starts (19.1 innings) and is tentatively scheduled to pitch again during a rematch against the Tigers in Detroit.
