Julio Urias was better. Unfortunately, better was not good enough.
Yesterday afternoon the Dodgers sent the 19-year old phenom out against the Cubs, and lost again. This time, however, Urias lasted a full five innings. Via Jon Weisman at Dodger Insider:
“I felt good,” Urias told reporters after the game (via SportsNet LA). “My pitches were there. Overall I felt good, but those pitches I missed, those were the ones they were able to capitalize on. … Those pitches lacked control, and they connected on them.”
Overall, he threw 79 pitches, recorded four strike outs, walked one and coughed up five earned runs.
