View More NewsYusei Kikuchi pitches six scoreless in no-decision Saturday
Yusei Kikuchi allowed four hits in six shutout innings on Saturday but earned a no-decision as the Padres went on to defeat the Angels, 4-1.
Fantasy Impact
Kikuchi had his best start of the year on Saturday but still could not pick up his first victory. The lefthander walked one and struck out a season-high tying eight batters, recording at least one strikeout in five of his season-long six innings. Kikuchi remained winless through five starts (0-2), but he lowered his ERA to 5.63 and his WHIP to 1.63 with the outing. He'll try again for win number one when he takes the mound in Kansas City on Friday.
