Bounces back in no-decision Littell took a no-decision Tuesday against the Padres, allowing two runs on two hits and one walk in six innings. He struck out four.

Impact Tuesday's showing was a major improvement for Littell, who had matched a season worst with four home runs allowed his last time out.

Littell, who owns a 3.80 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and 119:29 K:BB through 170.2 frames this year, is slated to make his next start in St. Louis.

No-decision in quality start Littell did not factor into Saturday's decision against the Brewers, allowing one run on four hits and one walk while striking out three across six innings.
