Kingham was hit hard in his return to the rotation, giving up six runs on seven hits, including two homers, while recording four outs in a loss to the Brewers on Sunday. Out of Minor League options next year, he’ll get another shot to prove himself.
In his last outing on Sept. 22 in Miami, DeSclafani tied his career high with 10 strikeouts. But his late-inning struggles continued and he was tagged with a loss after giving up five runs (three earned) on six hits over 5 2/3 innings.
