Despite only allowing one run over seven innings of work, Reds pitcher Michael Lorenzen received a no-decision during Tuesday's 2-1 win over the Rockies.
"That was Michael Lorenzen as good as I've seen him," Reds manager Bryan Price said, per MLB.com.
Lorenzen's lone mistake was giving up a solo home run to Nick Hundley in the fifth inning. He struck out three batters and walked three during the outing while lowering his ERA to 3.12.
"It's just a mentality, I made a promise to Cincinnati that I would do everything in my power to prepare as much as I can and come out and perform at my highest ability," Lorenzen said. "I threw the ball with confidence, and every pitch I threw tonight was with a purpose."
Tuesday's start was the first time Lorenzen was able to pitch more than six innings in his four starts this season. It is not known when his next start will be.
