EDGE Analysis
Shields was far from perfect, but received the necessary run support to earn his 11th victory. The Padres ace has maintained an impressive 9.58 K/9 but had difficulty with the long ball; Shields' 29 home runs allowed are tied for second among qualified starters. Shields is scheduled to face the Diamondbacks on Monday.
