Bassitt allowed one hit and one walk while striking out four across three innings Thursday against the Mariners. He did not factor into the decision.
Bassitt took the mound for the first time since he was hit by a comebacker that caused multiple facial fractures on Aug. 17. While he was limited to only three innings and 48 total pitches due to the lack of a rehab assignment, Bassitt was impressive in the short outing. He racked up 10 called strikes and five swinging strikes and did not allow an extra-base hit. Back in the rotation, Bassitt could make up to two more starts this season.
