T.J. McFarland - Hit with third loss ThursdayMcFarland (2-3) took the loss against the Astros on Thursday, allowing two earned runs on two hits over one-third of an inning. He did not walk or strike out a batter.ImpactMcFarland was the next man in following Mitch Spence's seven-inning quality start, but the veteran southpaw allowed back-to-back singles after retiring Yordan Alvarez to open the frame. McFarland would get the hook at that point and see the two runners eventually cross the plate and snap a 2-2 tie, saddling him with the loss. The 35-year-old had last allowed an earned run Aug. 28 prior to Thursday, and despite the stumble, he still carries a 3.78 ERA and 1.22 WHIP across a career-high 72 appearances (52.1 innings).
