King (2-3) earned the loss and blew his fourth save after pitching one inning, allowing two runs off two hits while striking out one batter in Friday's matchup with Baltimore.
King entered the ballgame in the eighth, tasked with maintaining Houston's slim 2-1 lead before allowing the eventual game-winning homer to Taylor Ward. In 41 games, the 29-year-old has posted a 3.27 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 34:16 K:BB in 44 innings.
