Hurling a shutout through seven innings on Sunday, Josh Tomlin failed to earn the win after he and his bullpen surrendered five runs in the eighth.
Tomlin gave up two runs and four hits over 7 1/3 innings. He was pulled after yielding a walk and a single to start the eighth. With Cleveland still up 3-0, the normally reliable Joe Smith proceeded to surrender four runs on three hits and a walk. Rafael Prez allowed one inherited runner to score on a ground out before retiring the last two batters. Tomlin has now gone four straight starts without a win.

Josh Tomlin got touched for five runs on 10 hits in six innings of work on Monday, but got spared a loss in Cleveland's 9-6 win in Boston.
He struck out two, walked none and served up a pair of home runs. Tomlin is coming off of a mostly effective July, so his effort tonight can likely be chalked up to pitching against a loaded Red Sox lineup in bandbox Fenway Park.

Josh Tomlin held the Diamondbacks to two runs on five hits in seven innings of work on Tuesday night as part of a no-decision.
He struck out four and didn't walk a batter. Tomlin didn't pick up his third straight win, but he's definitely over the funk he was in to begin June, where he allowed six runs in three straight starts. He gets the Yankees next time around.

Josh Tomlin allowed three runs on five hits in 6 1/3 innings on Wednesday, improving to 9-4 in Cleveland's 4-3 win over the Rockies.
His only mistakes were two pitches to Ty Wigginton, both of which were deposited over the left-field fence. Tomlin struck out three and walked none in picking up his second straight win, and appears to be over the funk he was in to begin June, where he allowed six runs in three straight starts.
