Wainwright (2-3) gave up nine hits on four earned runs and a walk over 6.1 innings in Thursday's 8-4 victory over the Blue Jays in the nightcap of a double-header.
EDGE Analysis
Wainwright hit the 100-pitch mark for the second straight start while going the longest he had in any of his five starts. It was the veteran righty's second consecutive win as well, and he's now lowered his ERA from 7.24 to 6.12 during that stretch. The 35-year-old right-hander pitched to plenty of contact -- notching only five swinging strikes -- but turned in another solid effort after a couple of shaky appearances earlier in April. He'll look to continue the positive momentum in a home start against the potent Brewers offense next Tuesday.
