Parker Messick allowed two earned runs over seven innings while striking out eight to pick up the win on Friday against the White Sox.

After getting through the first inning without any trouble, Messick allowed a solo homer to Braden Montgomery in the bottom of the second inning, cutting the Guardians’ lead to 2-1. Messick would allow his second earned run in the sixth inning via a solo homer by Munetaka Murakami, but would return to pitch a scoreless seventh inning before being pulled. Messick continues to give opposing offenses fits, as he has now allowed two earned runs or fewer in his last seven starts and boasts an impressive 2.34 ERA over that span along with a 1.02 WHIP. He’ll look to continue this hot run in his next start, which is scheduled for Thursday on the road against the Tigers.
