His last “start” (John Brebbia opened) was in the Giants’ 2-1 loss to the Milwaukee Brewers in game one of Thursday’s double-header, in which he allowed two runs on three hits with four strikeouts and two walks in six innings.

He’ll be facing off against Braves right-hander Kyle Wright, who enters tonight’s game with a 3.23 ERA, 3.69 FIP, with 154 strikeouts to 46 walks in 158.2 innings pitched.
