Heston gave up three earned runs on three hits and three walks over 2.1 innings in Wednesday's 12-7 Cactus League loss to the Dodgers.

EDGE Analysis

Heston had come into Wednesday's outing with seven scoreless innings on his spring resume, so his rocky appearance was his first taste of adversity. The 28-year-old gave up home runs to Justin Turner and Trayce Thompson and also handed out his first three free passes of spring in a 61-pitch outing. The struggles don't negate the positive impression Heston made over his first three appearances, but does serve as a blemish on his quest to secure a rotation spot as the potential fifth starter.
