Shuts out opponent in win Anderson (6-3) earned the win against the Cubs on Sunday, allowing no runs on three hits while striking out six and walking two in 6.2 innings.

Impact Anderson kept the Cubs off the scoreboard Sunday, limiting them to just three hits and no runs. He threw 59 of 99 pitches for strikes, picking up six strikeouts along the way. Sunday's appearance was Anderson's first this season without allowing an earned run and helped lower his ERA to 4.35. Though the young righty has six wins, he still has adjustments to make to keep runners from crossing the plate. Sunday's outing looks to be a step in the right direction for Anderson.

Short start Monday Anderson allowed four runs on six hits and four walks with three strikeouts in four-plus innings in a no-decision versus the Nationals on Monday.

Impact Anderson cruised through the first three innings before allowing a run in the fourth and three more in the fifth. Luckily for the right-hander, the Atlanta offense spotted him a 6-0 lead, so he was never in much danger of taking a loss. This was still his shortest start since his first outing of the year. He's posted a 4.81 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 53:30 K:BB across 63.2 innings in 12 starts overall, though he's allowed four or more runs in four of his last five outings. Anderson is projected for a road start versus the Cubs this weekend.

Tallies fifth win Anderson (5-3) allowed two earned runs on six hits and two walks while striking out five across six innings to earn the win Wednesday against Oakland.

Impact Anderson allowed both of his runs in the fourth inning, but he otherwise took advantage of the soft matchup to end a three-start stretch during which he had allowed at least four earned runs. His struggles had primarily been caused by the long ball, as Anderson served up a pair of home runs in each of his last two outings. However, he kept the ball in the yard Wednesday and induced seven groundball outs. Anderson has a 4.53 ERA and 50:26 K:BB across 59.2 innings on the season.

Survives Coors Field for fourth win Anderson (4-3) earned the win over Colorado on Thursday, pitching six innings and allowing five runs on 10 hits and one walk while striking out nine.

Impact This was far from Anderson's finest performance, but the right-hander hung around for 104 pitches and six innings in the hitter-friendly environment to pick up his first victory since May 4. He struck out a season-high nine batters and induced 15 swings-and-misses but gave up four runs over his final two frames. Anderson will carry a 4.70 ERA into his next start, which is expected to come at home against Oakland next week.

Fades late in no-decision Anderson didn't factor into the decision in Friday's 6-4 win over the Marlins, giving up four runs on four hits and three walks over 5.2 innings. He struck out five.

Impact The right-hander cruised through five scoreless innings but hit the wall in the sixth, serving up a pair of two-run homers to Garrett Cooper and Jesus Aguilar. Anderson got the hook after 100 pitches (63 strikes), coming up short of his third quality start of the year, and he'll carry a 4.34 ERA, 1.34 WHIP and 36:23 K:BB through 47.2 innings into his next outing.
