Earns win in relief Webb (5-3) earned the win in relief Monday against the Diamondbacks after tossing a scoreless inning, striking out two.

Impact Webb pitched the fifth inning and was extremely effective, needing just 13 pitches (eight strikes) to get the job done. He extended his streak of appearances without allowing an earned run to 14 (15 innings) and continues to be a reliable arm out of the bullpen for Atlanta.

Picks up loss in extras Webb (4-3) was tagged with the loss Friday against San Francisco after allowing an unearned run while walking two across two-thirds of an inning.

Impact Webb was tasked with pitching the 11th inning and ended just one out away from closing things out, but a sac fly from Kevin Gausman that scored Brandon Crawford changed the outcome of the contest. This was the first time Webb allowed a run since May 21, though, and for the most part, he's been a reliable arm for the Braves out of the bullpen.

Earns win in relief Webb (2-2) earned the win Thursday against the Rockies after tossing two scoreless innings, allowing one hit and striking out two.

Impact Webb made his first appearance since being recalled earlier this week and looked in complete control of the situation, tossing 18 of his 26 pitches for strikes and cruising his way through the middle innings after piggybacking Touki Toussaint's short three-inning outing. The right-hander has been up and down the big-league roster over the last few months, but he has not allowed a run in any of his last six appearances at this level.

Recalled by Atlanta Webb was recalled from Triple-A Gwinnett on Wednesday.

Impact Webb was optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Aug. 17, and he allowed three runs on five hits and a walk while striking out six in 3.2 innings across four minor-league appearances since then. However, he'll provide an extra arm in Atlanta's bullpen since active rosters expanded Wednesday. The right-hander will serve mainly as a low-leverage reliever since he has a 4.29 ERA and 1.57 WHIP in 21 innings across 20 appearances with Atlanta in 2021.

Sent to minors Atlanta optioned Webb to Triple-A Gwinnett on Tuesday.

Impact Webb's demotion clears a spot on the active roster for starting pitcher Huascar Ynoa (hand), who was reinstated from the 60-day injured list ahead of his scheduled outing Tuesday in Miami. During his four-day stint with the big club, Webb made two appearances out of the Atlanta bullpen, tossing a scoreless frame in both outings.
