EDGE Analysis

Hammel bounced back from a rough start last time out against Milwaukee, as he didn't allow a run until he started to run out of gas in the eighth inning. He induced 13 swinging strikes and nine ground balls as he efficiently worked through the Cardinals lineup. Hammel now has six quality starts in nine times out this season, and he hasn't allowed more than three runs in a start other than the aforementioned road bump against Milwaukee.
