EDGE Analysis

Gonzalez had been in superb form in September coming into Tuesday's contest, with double-digit strikeouts in two of his previous three starts, along with a sparkling 1.49 ERA. As customary, Gonzalez was stingy with the long ball on Tuesday,and did manage to secure first-pitch strikes on 15 of the 23 hitters he faced. However, he was done in by the timely hitting of several members of the Orioles lineup and failed to reach the fifth inning in a start for the fifth time in 2015. Gonzalez is scheduled for one more trip to the mound before the conclusion of the season.
