Mahle (3-6) took the loss Sunday, allowing four runs on seven hits and two walks while striking out six over six innings. He gave up three home runs.

EDGE Analysis

It could have been worse, as two of the three long balls were solo shots. Mahle has now given up 13 homers in 53.2 innings this season, with nine of those coming at Great American Ball Park. The right-hander has potential, but it's probably wise to avoid him at home until he shows some improvement with the homer issue. His upcoming road start in Colorado is one most will want to avoid as well.
