Takes loss despite decent outing Manaea (6-6) allowed four runs (three earned) on four hits and no walks while striking out six across 6.2 innings to take the loss Wednesday against Houston.

Impact Manaea was undone by two home runs, with a three-run shot by Jose Altuve being the big blow. However, he was fairly solid otherwise and was able to work deep into the game to offset the damage. Though he's now taken a loss in each of of his last four outings, Manaea has maintained a 3.91 ERA with 30 strikeouts across 23 innings in that span. Overall, he has a 3.19 ERA with a 108:25 K:BB across 104.1 frames on the campaign.

Drops third straight start Manaea (6-5) took the loss Thursday against Texas, allowing four runs on nine hits and a walk over five innings. He had six strikeouts.

Impact Home runs by Nate Lowe in the fourth inning and Joey Gallo in the fifth broke things open for the Rangers, who managed to put 10 runners on base against Manaea on the day. It was the third straight loss for the lefty despite a 24:6 KK:BB over 16.1 innings during that stretch. Manaea will take a 3.13 ERA and 1.24 WHIP into his next scheduled start, projected to come next week in Houston.

Takes hard-luck loss Friday Manaea (6-4) suffered the loss against San Francisco on Friday despite allowing only one run on three hits and three walks across six innings. He struck out seven.

Impact The left-hander pitched well in the battle of Bay Area teams, but he was outdueled by Giants starter Johnny Cueto, who held Oakland scoreless over seven frames. Manaea finished with his seventh straight start of three or fewer runs, and he has lowered his ERA from 4.40 to 2.91 since a disastrous two-inning, seven-run appearance against Boston on May 13. He is on pace for a career-best 9.3 K/9 and 0.8 HR/9, helping him to his finest campaign to date. Manaea's next start is lined up to come at home against the Rangers next week.

Strikes out 11 in loss Manaea (6-3) allowed two runs on three hits and two walks while striking out 11 in 5.1 innings to take the loss against the Yankees on Sunday.

Impact Manaea had earned wins in each of his last three starts, and he allowed one run in 20.2 innings during that time. Although he racked up a season-high 11 strikeouts Sunday, he couldn't get enough run support from the Athletics in the low-scoring contest. The southpaw has now posted a 3.01 ERA and 1.21 WHIP in 86.2 innings this year. He tentatively lines up to make his next start on the road against San Francisco on Friday.
