Phillies' Cristopher Sanchez: Fans 12, settles for no-decision
Rotowire
Sanchez didn't factor into the decision Tuesday against the Mariners, allowing two runs on six hits and two walks in 6.1 innings. He struck out 12.
It was an excellent performance overall from Sanchez, who matched a season high with 12 strikeouts and registered his fourth consecutive quality start. The All-Star southpaw has twirled at least six frames while permitting two runs or fewer in 12 of his last 14 starts since the beginning of June, and he boasts a 1.94 ERA, 0.97 WHIP and 99:16 K:BB during that period of 97.1 frames. Sanchez's next appearance is slated for next week against the Mets, who have a weak .649 OPS versus left-handed pitching since the beginning of July.

Rotowire
Sanchez (11-4) took the loss against the Reds on Wednesday, allowing four runs (three earned) on seven hits and one walk with six strikeouts over six innings.
Sanchez was mostly undone by a three-run sixth inning that featured some shaky defense, including his own error. The southpaw still notched his third straight quality start and has now completed at least six frames in 13 consecutive outings. He owns a 2.45 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 157:36 K:BB across 150.2 innings and lines up for a home matchup with the Mariners early next week.

Rotowire
Sanchez (11-3) earned the win Friday against the Rangers, allowing one run on six hits and one walks in six innings. He struck out six.
Sanchez may have one blip on the radar in the form of four-run outing July 28 against the White Sox, but he's been routinely dealing on the mound since the start of June. The left-hander has spun at least six innings while conceding one run or zero in nine of his 12 starts during that stretch, and he boasts a 1.69 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 81:13 K:BB over his last 85 innings. Sanchez will look to keep the good times going next week on the road against the Reds, who have a woeful .604 OPS versus left-handed pitching since the beginning of July.

Rotowire
Sanchez (10-3) allowed five hits and a walk while striking out six over eight shutout innings to earn the win over the Tigers on Sunday.
Sanchez was efficient as well as excellent, throwing 58 of 84 pitches for strikes in this start. This is the third time in his last eight outings that he's completed eight frames, and he's gone at least seven innings in eight of 11 starts since the beginning of June. The southpaw continues to have a breakout campaign -- he's now at a 2.40 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 145:34 K:BB through 138.2 innings over 22 starts. Sanchez's next start is projected to be on the road versus the Rangers.

Rotowire
Sanchez (9-3) took the loss Monday against the White Sox, allowing four runs on seven hits and one walk in 6.2 innings. He struck out five.
Sanchez's recent tear on the mound came to a halt, as Monday marked the first time in his last seven starts that he yielded greater than one run. The All-Star left-hander surrendered at least four runs for the first time since his April 6 start versus the Dodgers, but he did throw at least six frames in his 10th straight outing. Sanchez will bring a strong 2.55 ERA, 1.09 WHIP and 139:33 K:BB over 130.2 innings into this weekend's scheduled start against the Tigers, who have a poor .621 OPS versus left-handed pitching since the start of July.
