Turns in quality start Eovaldi allowed three runs on six hits and two walks with nine strikeouts in 6.1 innings versus Cleveland on Friday. He did not factor in the decision. Impact The right-hander gave up a pair of home runs in the contest -- a solo shot to Jose Ramirez and a two-run blast to Austin Hedges in the seventh. Eovaldi has allowed multiple homers in three starts this year, all of which have been in his last seven turns through the rotation. Despite the trouble with the long ball, it was a solid start for the 31-year-old, who now has a 3.73 ERA, 1.17 WHIP and 163:28 K:BB through 156.2 innings. He lines up for a home start versus Tampa Bay next week.
