Analisi

Brown surrendered a two-run homer to Brooks Lee in the fifth inning, but that was the only time the Twins were able to score against him. The right-hander racked up an outstanding 21 whiffs en route to a career-high 12 strikeouts. He also issued just one walk after handing out nine total free passes over his previous two starts. Despite those recent walk issues, Brown has been among MLB's best pitchers this season. He ranks fourth among qualified pitchers with a 1.88 ERA, sixth with a 0.93 WHIP and is tied for sixth with 105 punchouts while holding an 8-3 record through 14 starts.
