Filling in as a spot starter, the way Randall Delgado of the Arizona Diamondbacks has pitched these days, it would take nearly a no-hitter to overshadow his recent performances.
Coming into his latest start on Saturday against the Miami Marlins, Delgado, making his third start of the season, recorded a 1.86 ERA in his two previous starts. Over his previous nine appearances, before Saturday, the native of Panama had a 1.13 ERA. That equates to three earned runs in 24.0 innings.
Against the Marlins, Delgado continued to keep the Diamondbacks in the game. Taken out by in the sixth inning, he allowed just one run, and left trailing 1-0.
