Allows two homers in loss Dunning (9-5) took the loss Saturday, allowing three runs on seven hits and one walk over five innings against the Brewers. He struck out four.
Impact Dunning surrendered a solo home run to Carlos Santana in the first and needed 26 pitches to get out of the inning. The right-hander would again get tagged for a solo shot in the sixth, this time off the bat of Willy Adames, marking just his third time allowing multiple home runs in a start this season. Dunning had logged three quality starts in a row coming in and still holds a 2.81 ERA in August to go along with a 33:5 K:BB. However, he's now lost four of his last five decisions and has allowed seven hits in two straight.

Racks up career-high 12 K's Dunning allowed just one run on seven hits and no walks while striking out a career-high 12 batters in seven innings Sunday against the Giants. He did not factor into the decision.
Impact Believe it or not, Dunning was actually in line for the loss when his day was done but the Rangers were able to push the game to extras after scoring in the ninth. The only blemish on the day for him was a solo home run allowed to Michael Conforto in the second. The 28-year-old had set a career-best with 11 strikeouts Aug. 2 against the White Sox and turned in yet another masterpiece. He now has three 10+ strikeouts games over his last nine starts after having just one in his first 70 career starts. Dunning also became just the eighth pitchers in franchise history to throw at least 12 strikeouts without walking a batter. He now holds a 3.10 ERA, 1.14 WHIP and 97:34 K:BB in 127.2 innings and lines up to face the Brewers his next time out.

Earns quality start Dunning allowed three runs on five hits and three walks while striking out six over six innings in a no-decision versus the Athletics on Monday.
Impact Dunning notched his third quality start in five outings since the All-Star break, though it was a fairly pedestrian effort. He three 55 of 94 pitches for strikeouts and walked multiple batters for the third time in that span. The right-hander is now at a 3.21 ERA, 1.15 WHIP and 85:34 K:BB through 120.2 innings over 25 appearances (17 starts this season. Dunning is projected for a road start in San Francisco over the weekend.

Punches out 11 in easy win Dunning (9-4) earned the win over the White Sox on Wednesday, allowing one run on three hits and one walk while striking out 11 batters over 7.2 innings.
Impact Dunning was staked to a 7-0 lead after two frames and cruised from there, keeping Chicago off the scoreboard until Seby Zavala tagged him for a solo homer in the eighth. That was the only run Dunning gave up in a dominant outing during which he racked up 16 swinging strikes and a season-high 11 punchouts. This was a very positive start to August following an up-and-down July that saw the right-hander post a 5.06 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 17:9 K:BB over 26.2 frames covering five starts.

Allows three runs in loss Dunning (8-4) yielded three runs on five hits and three walks over five innings Friday, striking out four and taking a loss in San Diego.
Impact Dunning allowed two runs through four innings before Fernando Tatis drilled a solo homer in the fifth. In five July starts, Dunning posted a 5.06 ERA and a lackluster 17:9 K:BB through 26.2 frames. His season ERA has jumped to 3.28 after entering the month at 2.69. Dunning's next outing is projected to be at home against the White Sox.

Clobbered by Dodgers Dunning (8-3) took the loss Saturday as the Rangers were routed 16-3 by the Dodgers, coughing up five runs on seven hits and two walks over three innings. He struck out one.
Impact Freddie Freeman and Max Muncy both took Dunning deep in the third inning, kicking an 18-hit, five-homer eruption from the Los Angeles offense into high gear. It's only the second time this season the right-hander has served up multiple home runs in an outing, but Dunning's early-season stinginess has evaporated -- since the beginning of June, he has a 4.17 ERA, 1.28 WHIP and 32:16 K:BB through 54 innings, getting tagged for all nine of his homers allowed on the year during that time. He'll look to bounce back in his next start, which is likely to come next weekend in San Diego.

Goes seven strong innings Monday Dunning allowed two runs on five hits and one walk while striking out four batters over seven innings in a no-decision against Tampa Bay on Monday.
Impact Dunning looked to be in for a difficult outing when he gave up a run in each of his first two frames, but he settled in after that and didn't allow any more Rays to cross the plate for the remainder of his appearance. The right-hander finished with his fifth quality start over his past six outings, a span during which he's posted a 2.90 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 27:7 K:BB over 40.1 innings while picking up three wins. Dunning's lack of strikeouts limits his value in fantasy, but he's emerged as a reliable starter for the Rangers since moving into the rotation May 5, registering a 3.09 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 6-2 record despite a poor 52:20 K:BB across 78.2 innings covering 13 starts.

Falls to Nationals Dunning (8-2) took the loss Sunday, allowing four runs on seven hits and two walks over 5.2 innings against the Nationals. He struck out four.
Impact Though Dunning has had an impressive first half of 2023, he struggled against one of baseball's bottomfeeders, tying his season high in runs allowed and failing to finish six innings for the first time since June 17. However, all of the damage against Dunning came late, as a Dominic Smith solo homer in the fifth put the Nationals on the board. Through 20 appearances (12 starts), Dunning boasts an impressive 2.84 ERA but has struggled in the strikeout department, with 59 K's through 92 innings.

Sharp in eighth win Dunning (8-1) picked up the win Tuesday, allowing one run on six hits and a walk over six innings in a 6-2 victory over the Red Sox. He struck out four.
Impact Texas gave the right-hander a 3-1 lead in the top of the second inning and he never looked back, tossing 61 of 89 pitches for strikes before exiting. Dunning has reeled off four straight quality starts and won four straight decisions since the beginning of June, posting a 3.29 ERA and 23:11 K:BB in his last six outings (38.1 innings). He lines up to take the mound for the Rangers' final game before the All-Star break on the road against the Nationals.

One out away from CG Dunning (7-1) earned the win Wednesday, allowing two runs on four hits over 8.2 innings against Detroit. He struck out 10 and didn't record a walk.
Impact Dunning tossed eight shutout innings but got into trouble in the ninth and finished one out away from his first career complete game. The left-hander's 10 strikeouts tied his career high, which he set in 2021. Dunning has been excellent in 2023, allowing three or more runs just three times across 18 appearances (10 starts). He holds a 2.69 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 51:21 K:BB across 80.1 innings and should be in store for regular starts moving forward, especially if he keeps pitching at an elite level. Dunning's next start is scheduled during a three-game set in Boston.
