Falter (1-2) earned the win against the Nationals on Wednesday, allowing two hits and one walk while striking out two across seven scoreless innings.
Analysis: Falter needed just 83 pitches (of which 57 were strikes) to get through seven scoreless frames, allowing only three baserunners in the process. It was his second quality start in four tries and a nice bounce-back effort for the 26-year-old southpaw, who yielded 12 runs (10 earned) in his two outings prior to Wednesday's contest. Falter will look to make it two wins in a row in his next start, which is tentatively slated for next week on the road against the Angels.
Bailey Falter Allows seven runs in loss

Analysis: Falter entered the fifth inning with a 4-1 lead but was unable to record an out, ultimately surrendering six runs in the frame. Despite generating an impressive 14 swinging strikes on 88 pitches, the southpaw was tagged for two home runs by Trent Grisham. He'll take an ugly 8.10 ERA, 1.50 WHIP and 9:1 K:BB across 10 innings into a road matchup with the Reds next weekend.
