Alex Wood - Page 12 - MLB News, Rumors, & Updates

Fans seven in four innings Wood allowed two runs on six hits and no walks while striking out seven against Colorado on Friday. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact The left-hander was making only his second start since Aug. 26, which explains why he was pulled after just 61 pitches. Though he didn't remain in the game long enough to qualify for the win, Wood looked strong in the outing, giving up a pair of first-inning runs but none thereafter. The veteran hurler will continue to build up his pitch count in anticipation of assuming a key role in the playoffs. Wood's final start of the regular season is likely to come at home against Arizona on Thursday.
