Dominant over six scoreless frames

Musgrove (6-5) earned the win over the Giants on Saturday, allowing three hits over six scoreless innings while striking out eight.

Analysis

Musgrove hit Mark Canha with a pitch to open the bottom of the first before then limiting the Giants to just three singles over his six innings of work. The right-hander induced 12 whiffs on the night en route to posting at least eight strikeouts for the third time in his last five outings. Musgrove has also hurled at least six shutout frames three times over that stretch while going 3-1. He now carries a 3.31 ERA over three starts in September to go along with a dominant 23:3 K:BB.
