Leake (5-3) gave up four earned runs on six hits and a walk in Monday's 5-1 loss to the Dodgers. He struck out six.
EDGE Analysis
Leake was solid as usual, but a pair of solo home runs and an almost complete lack of run support conspired to do him in. The veteran right-hander was taken deep by Chase Utley in the third to open the scoring and then saw Cody Bellinger tag him the very next inning for a 432-foot blast. On the bright side, Leake's six strikeouts were his most since April 23, and he's now logged at least seven innings in four of his last five starts. However, after not surrendering any round trippers over his five trips to the mound in April, Leake notably regressed in May, allowing six homers in five starts. He'll look to bounce back in a Saturday start against the Cubs at Wrigley.
