Settles for no-decision Wednesday Fulmer allowed two runs on seven hits and one walk while striking out one batter over four innings in a no-decision in Game 2 of Wednesday's doubleheader versus the Yankees. Impact Fulmer was staked to an early 6-0 lead that increased to 8-1 by the middle of the fourth, and he kept New York from drawing close enough to cause major concern. However, the right-hander didn't record any clean frames and allowed multiple hits in three of the four innings in which he took the mound, which drove up his pitch count and resulted in him getting pulled at 90 pitches after four frames. That prevented him from qualifying for the win, which instead went to reliever Hunter Strickland, who followed Fulmer with two scoreless innings. Fulmer has given up three or fewer runs in each of his five outings since moving into the rotation July 14, but he's finished fewer than five frames in three of those starts.
