Mike Clevinger - Tosses two relief innings FridayClevinger allowed two runs on five hits and no walks while striking out two over two relief innings against Colorado on Friday.
ImpactClevinger was activated from the COVID-19 injured list earlier in the day, and he came into the contest in the fifth inning after starter MacKenzie Gore was roughed up for eight runs in four-plus frames. Clevinger had his own struggles, yielding four straight hits that resulted in two runs to begin the sixth inning. This was the right-hander's first appearance on a big-league mound since June 15 and just his second outing over the past month. With Joe Musgrove landing on the COVID-19 IL on Friday, Clevinger will presumably be in line for a start against either Arizona or Philadelphia next week.

Kyle Freeland - Earns second win in a rowFreeland (3-5) picked up a seven-inning win against the Padres on Friday, allowing four runs on eight hits while striking out none and walking one.
ImpactFreeland did not pitch his best, but picked up a win anyway, thanks to his offense scoring 10 runs. Although he did not strike out any batters and allowed eight hits, the lefty was able to limit the damage to four runs. Freeland showed efficiency, throwing 56 of 82 pitches for strikes across seven frames. He will have to do better in his next outing to ensure a win, since he likely will not get another 10 runs of support.

Charlie Blackmon - Two RBI in winBlackmon went 3-for-4 with a triple, two RBI and two runs scored in Friday's victory over the Padres.
ImpactBlackmon's two RBI game on a triple in the first inning, where he sent Yonathan Daza to the plate and a sixth-inning single that scored Connor Joe. The veteran outfielder picked up two runs of his own, both of which came thanks to CJ Cron homers. Blackmon has been swinging a hot bat lately, picking up a hit in 10 of his last 11 games, including six multi-hit games. Although his season batting average sits at .267, Blackmon is slashing .329/.365/.543 in June.
