Slade Cecconi allowed six hits and three runs with one walk and four strikeouts across 3 2/3 innings in a no-decision against the Twins on Wednesday.

Cecconi cruised through the first three innings allowing just two base runners and was only at 46 pitches entering the third. Then, he allowed singles to the first three batters he faced in the fourth, walked in a run with the bases loaded, and let two more runs score via a sacrifice fly and another single. He was pulled after that two-out hit and it felt like the right decision given how much hard contact he allowed that inning. This wound up as a poor result when it felt like he was turning the corner and he’ll head into the All-Star break with a 4.55 ERA, 77 strikeouts, and 31 walks through 99 innings.
