Kittredge, who allowed two runs (one earned) on three hits over two innings in an extra-innings loss to the Tigers on Sunday, has pitched to a 5.79 ERA over the 4.2 innings covering his last four appearances.
Kittredge has allowed an earned run in three of those outings, along with seven hits overall. That's a lot more contact than Kittredge, who still boasts an impressive 0.93 WHIP for the season, typically surrenders. However, given his overall body of work this season (8-3, 1.60 ERA, 9.7 K/9), the veteran right-hander is still slated to see plenty of high-leverage work for what remains of the regular season.
