Leake (illness) made his return from the DL Wednesday, pitching 4.1 innings in a no-decision versus the Pirates. He allowed three runs on nine hits and one walk while striking out three.

EDGE Analysis

Back on the mound for the first time since Aug. 21, Leake allowed two runs in a 23-pitch first inning that he was unable to rebound from. As he normally does, Leake threw strikes and limited the free passes to just one. However, getting too much of the plate has often hurt him, and that seemed to be the case again Wednesday as the Pirates racked up nine hits, the most Leake's allowed since July 23. He'll make his next start Tuesday versus the Cubs.
