Strikes out seven in win Tuesday
Crochet (2-1) earned the win Tuesday against the Brewers, allowing two runs on five hits and two walks with seven strikeouts across 6.1 innings.
Analysis
It was a nice rebound outing for Crochet after he was tagged for five runs (four earned) in a loss last Wednesday against the Astros. Crochet got back to using his fastball against Milwaukee, averaging 95.7 mph with the heater. Crochet got into some trouble in the seventh inning, allowing four of the five batters he faced to reach base, including a bases-loaded hit-by-pitch, but Zack Kelly was able to come on and get the final two outs to stop the bleeding. Crochet owns a 3.12 ERA and 22:4 K:BB across 17.1 innings. He'll take the mound in Minnesota on Monday for his fourth start.

Stumbles vs. Houston
Crochet (1-1) took the loss Wednesday against the Astros, allowing five runs (four earned) on six hits across five innings. He struck out seven.
Analysis
The left-hander shut out the Reds over six frames in his season debut, but it was a different story for Crochet on Wednesday. After giving up two runs in the first inning, the 26-year-old surrendered a two-run homer to Carlos Correa in the fifth in an eventual 6-4 defeat. Crochet will look to get back on track in his next outing, tentatively lined up for next week at home against the Brewers.
