Martín Pérez surrendered three runs in four-plus innings Wednesday in a loss to the Padres.

Pérez failed to complete five innings for the first time in 12 starts this year, and the Braves dropped to 7-5 in his starts. Still, absolutely no one is complaining about Pérez being 6-4 with a 3.00 ERA nearly halfway through the season. He’s due to face the Cardinals next week, though the Braves will have some options to line up things differently after off days Thursday and Monday.
