Harvey tossed seven scoreless frames and allowed just two hits while striking out six and walking one in a winning effort against the White Sox on Monday afternoon.
EDGE Analysis
Just as encouraging as the result is that Harvey was holding his velocity better in the final innings of his start Monday than he has throughout this season -- he averaged 96.5 mph on his four-seam fastball for the duration of the start (according to Brooks Baseball) -- and he avoided a collapse the second or third time through the White Sox's batting order. Monday marked the first time all season that Harvey pitched in the seventh inning, a feat he'll look to repeat on Sunday against the Marlins.
