Works four innings Thompson (illness) allowed two unearned runs on two hits and two walks while striking out two over four innings in a no-decision versus Philadelphia on Saturday. The game was suspe...

Impact The right-hander had some trouble in the first inning, yielding runs on a sacrifice fly by Andrew McCutchen and an RBI double by Rhys Hoskins.

Thompson has a 1.93 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 33:9 K:BB through 28 innings this year. He lines up for a tough matchup in his next start, tentatively scheduled for next weekend's four-game series versus San Diego.
