34 Zach McAllister, SP

Indians starting pitcher Zach McAllister rode a wave of run support to his fourth win Thursday night, holding the Red Sox to three earned runs on five hits and three walks in five innings. He struck out five in the 12-3 win. All three runs scored on a David Ortiz home run in the third inning.

McAllister hasn't allowed more than three earned runs in a start this season and has a 2.89 ERA in 56 innings over nine starts. He'll take on the Reds in Cincinnati Tuesday.

Indians starter Zach McAllister has now recorded 10 starts in a row having gone at least five innings with three earned runs allowed or fewer. It is the longest such run since Josh Tomlin did it 11 times from 2010 through 2011.

Unfortunately, Chris Perez gave up back-to-back homers in the ninth and that burned McAllister's lead. He settled for a no-decision.

McAllister gave up two earned runs on six hits and a walk over 7 1/3 innings. He struck out one and was hurt by Brendan Ryan's two-run homer in the eighth. His ERA is 2.65.

McAllister has won his last two decisions and has allowed just six runs over his last four starts spanning 28 innings. His next scheduled start comes Thursday at Boston.

Indians starter Zach McAllister took a no-decision Sunday in a six-inning quality start against Detroit.
