Freddy Peralta - Stumbles vs. Rangers Peralta (16-6) took the loss Wednesday against the Rangers, allowing five runs on six hits and two walks across five innings. He struck out nine.
Impact Peralta matched a season high with five runs allowed in the loss, his first defeat in seven starts. The right-hander had been nearly untouchable coming Wednesday -- he'd held opponents scoreless in each of his prior five outings (28 innings), striking out 35 while allowing just nine hits in that span. Overall, Peralta's ERA sits at 2.69 with a 1.09 WHIP and 185 strikeouts through 30 starts (163.2 innings) this year. He'll look to get back on track his next time out, tentatively scheduled to come next week at home against the Angels.

Phil Maton - Notches fourth save Maton earned the save in Wednesday's 6-3 win over the Brewers, striking out one without allowing a run over two-thirds of an inning.
Impact After Shawn Armstrong walked Issac Collins with one out in the ninth, Maton was brought in to face the top of Milwaukee's batting order. The right-hander would strike out Brice Turnag before Jackson Chourio lined out, sealing the three-run Texas victory. It's the fourth save of the year for Maton and his first since August 5 -- he had blown his last three save chances while posting a 5.73 ERA in 11 innings prior to Wednesday, thus ceding the closing job to Armstrong. Overall, Maton's ERA sits at 2.95 this season with a 1.09 WHIP and 73 strikeouts across 55 innings between the Rangers and Cardinals.

Merrill Kelly - Settles in for 12th win Kelly (12-7) earned the win Wednesday over the Brewers, allowing three runs on 10 hits across 5.2 innings. He struck out six.
Impact Kelly's day got off to an inauspicious start, as he gave up back-to-back homers to Brice Turang and Jackson Chourio to lead off the game. However, the right-hander would right the ship and keep the Brewers from scoring again until the sixth inning en route to a 6-3 Texas victory. The 36-year-old Kelly has been sharp of late, posting a 2.61 ERA over his last six outings (38 innings). He'll look to keep it going his next time out, tentatively scheduled for next week on the road against the Astros.
