Hill did not factor into the decision Friday, allowing three runs on seven hits and two walks over six innings against the Giants. He struck out two.
It was not the most impressive performance you'll ever see, but Hill met the requirements for a quality start -- his first since June 9. At 43 years old, Hill is the stereotypical crafty lefty who gets by with his curveball, guts and moxie. He can still be useful as a streaming option, but it's best to avoid him in tough matchups. Hill will head into his next start with a 4.76 ERA and 1.44 WHIP across 104 innings this season.
