Ryan Yarbrough Looking To Keep Momentum Going Thursday
4 years agoTampa Bay Rays starting pitcher Ryan Yarbrough is looking to build off a strong performance against the Braves on Thursday after a dominant outing versus the Blue Jays last weekend. The lefty tossed 5 1/3 scoreless frames against Toronto, allowing four hits while striking out one. The Braves have struggled versus southpaws early this season (31.5% K-rate, .233 BA), while Yarbrough has fared much better on the road in his career (3.41 ERA). He doesn't have a high strikeout arm, but a free-swinging Braves team could help him pick up a few more punchouts than usual.
