Brewers' Zach Davies: Stays sharp versus Dodgers

Davies stayed sharp in Friday's start versus the Dodgers, allowing just one run with six strikeouts and one walk across seven strong innings. He did not factor into the decision as the game was decided in extra innings.

Analysis:

Davies pounded the strike zone at a 64 percent clip and induced an impressive 15 swinging strikes, but the Brewers offense couldn't mount much of a charge and failed to help secure his fifth straight win. The right-hander has been on a roll over his last four starts, as he now has a 27:5 K:BB and a minuscule 0.96 ERA over 28 innings during that span. He's developing into a fine major league starter and will look to keep it rolling next Friday versus Washington on two extra days rest.
