GEORGE KIRBY NEWS

Cruises to third win Kirby (3-4) earned the win in Sunday's game against the Pirates, allowing four hits and no walks across 6.1 scoreless innings with nine strikeouts.

Impact The Seattle right-hander bagged his third consecutive quality start, as he generated an impressive 19 whiffs out of his 93 total pitches. Kirby completely controlled the Pittsburgh lineup, who never threatened to do damage, tallying just four singles. With this effort, Kirby lowered his ERA from 4.85 to 4.22 across 49 total frames while managing to push his K/9 up to 9.2. The 27-year-old is currently slated to make his next start at Detroit next weekend.

In control for second win Kirby (2-4) allowed one run on three hits and struck out five without walking a batter over six innings to earn the win over the Royals on Monday.

Impact Kirby threw 60 of 85 pitches for strikes in a dominant performance. He allowed two runs or less in five of his six starts in June, and he also walked one batter or fewer in five of those outings. It's a return to form for the steady right-hander, though his poor first two starts of the year are still weighing on his 4.85 ERA and 1.17 WHIP for the year, though his 41:9 K:BB over 42.2 innings is sharp. Kirby is projected for a favorable home matchup versus the Pirates this weekend.

Hard-luck loss in six strong frames Kirby (1-4) was saddled with the loss Wednesday against the Twins, giving up one run on three hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out three.

Impact The 27-year-old right-hander surrendered a season-low one run, and he even fired 3.2 hitless innings to begin the outing. Minnesota scratched a run across via a Willi Castro single in the sixth frame, but it was still nonetheless one of Kirby's finer efforts so far this year. He's still trying to find a rhythm following a delayed start to the season with a shoulder injury, as evidenced by his 5.40 ERA through his first 36.2 innings, but he does carry a solid 36:9 K:BB and 1.28 WHIP ahead of his next scheduled matchup versus a Royals team with a .664 OPS this year.

Allows two homers in no-decision Kirby did not factor into the decision in Friday's 9-4 win against the Cubs, allowing four runs on seven hits and one walk with three strikeouts over five innings.

Impact Kirby was tagged for three runs in the first inning before mostly settling down over his next four frames. He threw 60 of 85 pitches for strikes but gave up two homers, bringing his season total to seven in six outings. The 27-year-old has had mixed results since returning from the injured list May 22, allowing exactly two earned runs in three starts while surrendering a combined 15 earned runs in the other three. He'll carry a 6.16 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and 33:8 K:BB across 30.2 innings into a road matchup with the Twins next week.

Takes no-decision Saturday Kirby allowed two runs on five hits and three walks while striking out five over five innings in a no-decision versus the Guardians on Saturday.

Impact The three walks were a season high, contributing to his fairly early exit. Kirby needed 101 pitches (63 strikes) to get through five frames, which was a bit of a letdown after his 14-strikeout performance in his previous start versus the Angels. Kirby has been middling so far with a 5.96 ERA, 1.36 WHIP and 30:7 K:BB across 25.2 innings over five starts after beginning the year sidelined by shoulder inflammation. He is lined up to make his next start on the road versus the Cubs.
