Hess struggled in his first start in more than a month, allowing seven runs (five earned) in Friday’s loss to the Rangers. The home run continues to be a problem for Hess: He’s allowed at least one in nine of his 12 appearances this season.
Wood pitched around a two-out single for a scoreless first inning but allowed an RBI single in the second inning of his most recent start, against the White Sox on Sunday. He’s struck out 29 in 22 1/3 innings on the season.
