Kranick allowed three earned runs on five hits and three walks while striking out four across four innings Tuesday against the Brewers. He did not factor into the decision.
Kranick labored throughout the start, as he allowed multiple baserunners in two innings and managed only one clean frame. He struggled to throw strikes consistently, with only 48 of his 82 pitches finding the zone, and he was fortunate the bases were empty when he served up a home run to Willy Adames. Since throwing five perfect innings in his major-league debut, Kranick has allowed 17 earned runs across 15 innings in four subsequent appearances.
