Earns first MLB win Heasley (1-1) allowed four runs on six hits and a walk over 5.1 innings Friday, striking out one batter and earning a win over the Twins.

Impact The only damage against Heasley through the first five innings was an RBI double by Josh Donaldson in the fourth frame. He served up a solo homer to Ryan Jeffers in the sixth and was charged with another two runs after he was lifted from the game. The 24-year-old rookie produced a 4.91 ERA and a 6:3 K:BB through 14.2 innings in his first taste of MLB action.

Works into sixth inning Heasley pitched 5.1 scoreless innings Saturday against Detroit, giving up three hits and two walks with three strikeouts. He did not factor in the decision.

Impact It was a much-improved effort from Heasley, who surrendered four runs in four innings during his MLB debut eight days earlier. Heasley limited the Tigers to a double and a pair of singles Saturday and pitched into the sixth inning before a one-out walk to Daz Cameron ended his day. Heasley has just five strikeouts through his first 9.1 innings, but he has almost certainly earned one more start this season, tentatively scheduled for next Friday against Minnesota.

Gets another start Heasley is slated to make his next turn through the Kansas City rotation Saturday in Detroit, Alec Lewis of The Athletic reports.

Impact The rookie right-hander will get a chance to redeem himself after he underwhelmed in his MLB debut last weekend against the Mariners. Heasley covered four innings in that start, giving up four runs on six hits and no walks while striking out two. He showcased some strikeout upside (27.7 K%) at Double-A Northwest Arkansas prior to his call-up, though the long ball was an issue (1.5 HR/9).
