Takes loss despite quality start Gibson (8-5) was tagged with the loss Tuesday against the Diamondbacks after allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks across six innings, fanning five. Impact Gibson has dropped his last two starts and five of his last seven outings, but he hasn't been pitching as bad as a 2-5 record in that span would indicate. In fact, he has given up three or fewer runs in four of his last five appearances while posting four quality starts during that span. Aside from a woeful start against the Dodgers earlier this month, in which he gave up six runs across 4.1 innings, he has been a steady presence in the rotation since being acquired before the deadline. He owns a 4.70 ERA in four starts with the Phillies.
