Gausman allowed one earned run on two hits and four walks, striking out two over six innings Sunday against the Indians. Gausman's four free passes matched a season-high, and ultimately limited his longevity in this one, as he needed 91 pitches (51 strikes) to complete six frames. He was left in line to earn the victory, however, and improved to 7-4 on the season after winning his third start in his last four tries. The 23-year-old now owns a 3.70 ERA on the season, but he's given up a lot of base runners, and a 4.37 xFIP suggests that his ERA could be on the rise. He'll attempt to prove this notion wrong in his next scheduled start Saturday against the Cubs.
