Herrin (5-1) was charged with the loss Sunday against the Cardinals after giving up one run on a hit-by-pitch over one inning.
EDGE Analysis
The hit batsman (Lars Nootbaar) was the only baserunner Herrin allowed in his appearance. Andrew Walters faltered in relieving Herrin, walking two batters and uncorking a wild pitch that allowed that the decisive run to score. It's a tough way to lose a 9.2-inning scoreless streak, but Herrin has been excellent in a mostly low-leverage role this year. He's pitched to a 1.98 ERA, 0.96 WHIP and 66:25 K:BB across 64.2 innings while adding 15 holds, though he hasn't seen consistent usage as a setup man.
