Lopez allowed one run on four hits and two walks while striking out three in 4.2 innings in Friday's win over the Nationals. He didn't factor into the decision.
Lopez had some issues with command and only threw 45 of his 82 pitches for strikes, but he was able to limit Washington's run production. However, he fell just short of qualifying for the win since he was removed from the game with two outs in the fourth inning. The right-hander had been charged with six consecutive losses leading up to the All-Star break, but he's now settled for no-decisions in each of his last two outings. Lopez tentatively lines up to make his next start on the road against Detroit on Thursday.
