Gio Gonzalez yielded two runs on five hits over seven innings in a loss to the Braves on Sunday.
Gonzalez suffered from back tightness throughout his four-inning start in Tuesday's rain-delayed victory over the Giants, but he looked fine this afternoon. He whiffed nine batters but also walked four, which is how Gonzalez rolled up 120 pitches. Atlanta had trouble with the left-hander's stuff, managing only two fly-ball outs and one extra-base hit (Freddie Freeman's double), but held on for a 2-1 victory. Gonzalez drops to 7-6 with a 3.38 ERA.
