Win streak ends with no-decision
Kelly allowed two runs on eight hits, two walks and a hit batsman while striking out two over 5.1 innings in a no-decision Sunday versus the Mariners.
Analisi
Kelly's strong pitching continued, but he wasn't able to earn a fifth straight win. He's allowed just nine runs over his last five starts spanning 34.1 innings with a 19:7 K:BB. The veteran right-hander is now at a 5.06 ERA, 1.46 WHIP and 33:22 K:BB through 53.1 innings across nine starts this season. Kelly is projected for a home start versus the Nationals in his next outing.

Grabs fourth consecutive win
Kelly (5-3) earned the win Monday against the Giants, allowing two runs on four hits and two walks while striking out four over seven innings.
Analisi
Kelly turned in another strong outing, tossing 64 of his 96 pitches for strikes while generating 25 combined called and swinging strikes. The veteran right-hander allowed both of his runs in the fourth inning on a two-run double by Rafael Devers, but otherwise kept San Francisco quiet. Kelly has now delivered four straight quality starts, allowing just seven runs over his last 29 innings for a 2.17 ERA during that stretch. Despite the recent success, the underlying metrics remain concerning, as Kelly still ranks in the bottom one percent of MLB in xERA, xSLG and xBA. He now owns a 5.25 ERA with a 31:20 K:BB across eight starts and is scheduled to face Seattle on Sunday.
