Strong pitching by some big Atlanta pitching prospects.

Carlos Franco, 1B: 1-4, HR, 2 RBI, .261/.308/.465

Michael Reed, DH: 1-2, 2 BB, .425/.549/.575

Kolby Allard, SP: 6 IP, 7 H, 2 ER, 1 BB, 7 K, 2.28 ERA

Another game, another solid performance for Kolby Allard who racked up seven strikeouts over six innings. Over his last ten starts Allard hasn’t surrendered more than three runs in one appearance, and that was just two starts, and his ERA over those last ten starts has been 2.07. On the season Allard now has a 2.4 BB/9 rate, and 6.1 K/9 rate, so while the strikeout numbers aren’t there he is inducing a ton of weak contact.
