Punches out nine in quality start

Mize did not factor into the decision Tuesday, striking out nine and allowing one run on four hits and two walks over six innings during a 7-5 loss to the Diamondbacks.

Analisi

Mize induced 15 swinging strikes on 93 pitches as he limited Arizona to a solo homer across six frames, but he lost out on the victory due to an eighth-inning collapse by the Detroit bullpen. The right-hander has never been a big punchout guy with a career 19.5 percent strikeout rate, but his splitter was in top form Tuesday, generating nine whiffs and six strikeouts. Mize lines up for a favorable road matchup against the Twins early next week.
