Standout: Miles Mikolas

Mikolas received a no-decision in his start Monday against the Blue Jays.

After 6.2 innings of work, Mikolas gave up four hits, two walks, and three earned runs, including a home run to George Springer. This was his eighth homer of the year. Mikolas did strike out five batters and induced 12 swings and misses.

Genesis Cabrera got the win after pitching the tenth inning Monday.

While the club didn’t get the offense it needed until extra innings, it was good to see Mikolas pitch better Monday. Hopefully, he will be able to continue on this path.
