Schmidt allowed one run on four hits over 5.1 innings in Sunday's 3-2 loss to Boston in 10 innings. He struck out four and didn't factor in the decision.
Schmidt didn't face much trouble aside from Justin Turner's solo shot in the second inning but failed to get a win after Boston's late comeback. After posting an ugly 6.30 ERA through nine outings, Schmidt has registered a 2.33 ERA over his last five starts. He's lowered his season mark to 4.70 next to a 70:19 K:BB, though he's 2-6 and hasn't earned a win since May 19. Schmidt is next lined up for a rematch with the Red Sox in Boston.
