Chris Tillman‘s performance in 2014 paved the way for the Baltimore Orioles’ run to the American League Championship Series. The righty threw a team leading 207.1 innings pitched, posted a 3.34 ERA while holding opponents to a .238 batting average.
So far, 2015 hasn’t been the same.
Tillman was tagged with his seventh loss of the season on Sunday after the Rays scored six runs (five earned) off him in just 4.2 innings pitched. It was the fourth time this season that Tillman failed to pitch five full innings and the sixth time he failed to reach six.
