Bello (1-6) took the loss Wednesday after he allowed three runs (zero earned) on six hits and one walk over five innings against the Yankees. He struck out six.
Bello started off with four scoreless frames, but New York tallied three unearned runs in the fifth off three hits and two errors. The 23-year-old rookie made his big-league debut July 6, and he appears to have secured a rotation spot for the stretch run. The righty has improved over his last six outings, recording a 2.77 ERA over 26 innings.
