Urquidy got a no-decision in Friday's 6-3 win over the Padres, allowing two runs on five hits and a walk with four strikeouts in 4.1 innings.
Making his first start since June 29 due to a shoulder injury, Urquidy limited San Diego just enough for Houston to come out on top, permitting one run on two hits in both the third and fifth innings. Manager Dusty Baker let the 29-year-old throw a respectable 71 pitches in four plus innings which bodes well for his next start scheduled for Friday versus the Angels.
