Earns fifth win
Rodriguez (5-1) allowed two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out six over six innings to earn the win Tuesday over the Giants.
Analysis
Rodriguez has quality starts in four of his five outings in May, and he's earned three wins this month. He's allowed just six runs over 33.2 innings in that span, a strong rebound after some struggles in the latter half of April. The southpaw is enjoying an impressive bounce-back campaign after two years of struggles, pitching to a 2.31 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and 49:25 K:BB through 66.1 innings over 11 starts. The walk rate (3.4 BB/9) is in line with his career norms, but a career-low BABIP (.259) has allowed him to find more success than usual. Rodriguez's next start is projected to be a tough one at home versus the Dodgers early next week.

Hurls seven scoreless frames
Rodriguez allowed four hits and walked one batter while striking out four over seven scoreless innings in a no-decision against Colorado on Thursday.
Analysis
Rodriguez took his first loss of the season against Colorado in his previous start, but he shut down the Rockies' offense in the rematch. The veteran southpaw retired the first nine batters he faced and allowed just one Colorado runner to reach third base. As usual, Rodriguez didn't miss many bats -- he tallied just seven whiffs and four punchouts -- but he nonetheless managed his fifth quality start through 10 outings. It's been a resurgent season for Rodriguez, who posted an ERA above 5.00 in each of his previous two campaigns. So far this season, he's pitched to a stellar 2.24 ERA despite a modest 43:23 K:BB through 60.1 innings.
