It doesn’t take a Ph.D. in pitching to figure out the very start in which Aaron Nola’s season fell off a cliff. Take a look at his game log, courtesy of Baseball-Reference.
Save for one bad start against the Nationals back in April, Nola didn’t allow more than four runs in any outing through June 5. He threw at least six innings in every start, aside from the start against the Nationals, notching nine straight quality starts from April 22 through the first week of June.
