Buehler (13-3) took the loss in Sunday's 6-4 defeat at the hands of the Giants, allowing six runs on seven hits and one walk with one strikeout in three innings.
Buehler picked the wrong time to have his worst start of the season as first place was on the line in the NL West. The Cy Young contender permitted runs in all three innings in submitting only his second start with less than six innings pitched and lowest strikeout total all year. Look for Buehler to rebound next weekend against San Diego as his 2.31 ERA still leads MLB.
