The J.P. France train keeps rollin on. And it doesn’t look like it’s stopping for anyone.
Tonight the train rolled over the Guardians. France pitched his ninth quality start in his last ten starts. He only allowed two runs, scattering seven hits and two walks with six strikeouts. His ERA since June 1st is the fourth lowest of all starters since June 1st.
Where did this guy come from?
At first, it looked like regression had finally come. The Guardians got two quick runs in the second on two singles, a double, and a sac fly.
