Quinn Mathews allowed two runs and struck out four batters over six innings in a loss against the Giants on Tuesday.

Mathews got tagged for a solo homer by Bryce Eldridge in the first inning. Christian Koss then took him deep for a solo shot in the second. The two runs would be all he allowed as he completed six innings for the first time in his career, logging his first quality start. He scattered three other hits and two walks while striking out four. The 25-year-old left-hander will take a 4.11 ERA, 1.50 WHIP, and a 28/14 K/BB ratio across 30 2/3 innings into a start against the same Giants in St. Louis on Monday.
