Tosses six scoreless frames in win Falter (2-3) earned the win against Atlanta on Friday, allowing two hits and two walks while striking out three over six scoreless innings.
Impact After yielding three base runners in the first two innings, Falter proceeded to face the minimum number of batters in three of the next four frames en route to his second shutout of the year. He hasn't generated a ton of whiffs or strikeouts this season, but the 28-year-old southpaw has allowed three earned runs or less in six of eight starts and has a 4.36 ERA and 1.13 WHIP over 43.1 innings. Falter's next start is tentatively slated for next week on the road against the Mets.

Fernando Tatis Jr. scores Padres' winning run on wild pitch AND joins 100-100 club
No-decision in quality start Falter did not factor into the decision of Saturday's game against the Padres, allowing one run on two hits and two walks while striking out six over seven innings.
Impact Falter scatted four baserunners over seven strong innings, with his only blemish coming on a Manny Machado solo homer in the seventh frame. It was Falter's third quality start of the season and the second time he has made it through seven innings. He has a 5.06 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 28:11 K:BB across 37.1 innings, and his next start is slated for next week at home against Atlanta.

Padres look to prolong win streak, play the Pirates

MAY 3, 2025 • Associated Press
Stumbles in loss Falter (1-3) yielded seven runs (five earned) on eight hits and two walks over 4.1 innings Sunday, striking out two and taking a loss against the Dodgers.
Impact Falter struggled right out of the gate Sunday, coughing up four runs in the first inning and another in the second. He settled in for a bit until the Dodgers plated three more runs in the fifth frame, with two being charged to Falter. It's the second time that Falter's allowed seven runs in a start this season and his ERA jumped to 5.93 through 30.1 innings. He's projected for a home matchup with the Padres next weekend.

APRIL 27, 2025 • Associated Press
Ready for next start Falter (back) is listed as the Pirates' scheduled starting pitcher for Sunday's game against the Dodgers in Los Angeles.
Impact The 28-year-old lefty departed after four innings in his latest start Tuesday against the Angels due to back tightness, but he's apparently bounced back well from the injury and will be ready to take the hill Sunday on normal rest. While Falter has delivered a strong 1.19 WHIP through his first five starts of the season, most his other ratios (5.19 ERA, 12.5 K-BB%) have painted an unflattering picture of his performance. He won't be a recommended streaming option as he takes on a stellar Dodgers offense on the road.

Exits with back tightness Falter was removed from his start Tuesday against the Angels due to lower-back tightness.
Impact Falter threw just 65 pitches across four innings before being pulled from the game, during which he gave up three runs on five hits and no walks while striking out five batters. The severity of his injury remains unknown, so there's no telling if he'll be able to make his next start -- tentatively scheduled to come against the Dodgers on Sunday.
