Impact Smith needed just eight pitches to retire the side in the ninth inning. The lefty has a team-high three saves on the season, as Smith and Jose Leclerc are splitting closer duties. Both pitchers have been excellent. Leclerc has a 0.93 ERA, while Smith is down to 1.93.

Impact DeGrom has now left two of his last three starts with injuries, as he dealt with wrist soreness earlier in the campaign. The right-hander assuredly will undergo imaging to check for structural damage, and while he should be considered day-to-day for now, a trip to the injured list cannot be ruled out at this point.

Brad Miller - Held out against righty Miller was held out of Thursday's lineup against right-hander Gerrit Cole of the Yankees.

Impact The lefty-batting Miller has one role on the team: to face right-handed pitchers. He's taken 44 of his 45 plate appearances against righties. That he couldn't crack the starting lineup with regulars unavailable is not a good sign going forward for Miller.

Impact Jung, who was removed from Wednesday's game after getting hit on the left hand, was held out of Thursday's game. Ezequiel Duran filled for him at third base. Jung took pre-game batting practice Thursday while wearing a padded guard over the hand.

Andrew Heaney - Takes second loss of season Heaney (2-2) took the loss Thursday, allowing three runs on four hits and one walk over six innings in a 4-2 loss to the Yankees. He struck out six.

Impact Heaney was solid, but was out-dueled by Yankee ace Gerrit Cole. The southpaw has now allowed just five runs over his last four starts combined, after giving up seven in his first start of the year. The 31-year-old is tentatively slated to face the Diamondbacks at home in his next appearance.
