Then, he settled in very well and hung zeroes the rest of his outing. When it was all said and done, he turned in a really good start. 5IP | 5H | 1R | 4Ks | 1BB Back-to-back excellent starts for Allen, who has given up just 3 runs in those outings that total 10.2 innings. He has also sandwiched an outing on May 17th, where he gave up 5 runs in 6 innings, with a third very good outing out of his last 4. In that outing on May 12, he gave up just 1 run in 4 innings.”
