Anthony Kay allows two earned runs to Jays

Anthony Kay

CWS Starting Pitcher #18

Player Stats

Anthony Kay allowed two earned runs over four innings while striking out five, earning a no-decision in Friday’s win over the Blue Jays.

Kay kept the Jays off the board for the first two innings of this one, but saw his first earned run come across to score in the third inning on a fielder’s choice by George Springer. In the fourth inning, Kay would allow a solo homer to Luis Urías in the second inning and left the game to start the fifth inning while holding onto a 5-2 lead. The lone run he allowed in the third inning was a sign of good fortune, as Kay allowed four batters to reach base in the frame, but the Jays were unable to capitalize with runners in scoring position. Kay’s next start is scheduled for Wednesday against the Rangers.

Kay gave up six hits, walked two and struck out four. He entered play Tuesday with a 2.66 ERA in four August starts. Kay wasn’t quite as sharp against the Rangers as even with an 8-1 lead he couldn’t complete the fifth inning. He has a 4.09 ERA this year. Kay is lined up to face the Astros on the road next week.

Anthony Kay lost after allowing two runs over six-plus innings Thursday against the Braves.

Kay struck out six and walked one. He allowed one run through six before giving up a double to Michael Harris II to start the seventh and immediately being lifted afterwards. Harris later came around to score. Kay has given up three runs or fewer in nine straight starts, going 3-3 with a 3.23 ERA during the span. He’ll take his next turn Tuesday against the Rangers.

Anthony Kay allowed three runs with four strikeouts over 5 1/3 innings in a no-decision against the Tigers on Saturday.

Kay surrendered a run in the first inning on a walk and two hits. Eduardo Valencia later took Kay deep for a solo homer in the fourth inning before a pair of doubles scored a third run in the fifth. Kay recorded the first out in the sixth and departed at 86 pitches with four strikeouts. The 31-year-old left-hander will take a 4.01 ERA, 1.34 WHIP, and a 98/44 K/BB ratio across 121 1/3 innings into a start against the Braves in Chicago on Thursday.

Anthony Kay allowed two runs over six innings and pick up a win over the Guardians on Saturday.

Kay and Gavin Williams matched zero-for-zero for the first five innings, but Kay blinked first with a two-run homer allowed in the sixth to Rhy Hoskins. It turned into a no-decision with the White Sox also getting a pair off Williams in the sixth. The southpaw struck out four against one walk, and his ERA has dipped below 4.00 to 3.96. That’s now seven straight starts where Kay has not allowed more than three runs, and a chance to make it eight comes Friday in Detroit against the Tigers.

Anthony Kay scattered seven hits over 6 1/3 scoreless innings against the Rays on Sunday.

In both the fourth and sixth innings, the Rays were able to string together three hits against Kay, but they were all singles and none produced any runs. Kay improved to 8-5 with a 4.01 ERA. He’s certainly not overwhelming anyone, but he’s gone six straight starts without allowing more than three runs. He’ll face the Guardians next weekend.

Anthony Kay struck out seven over 5 1/3 innings while allowing three runs in a loss to the Yankees on Tuesday.

If you take away the second inning, Kay was excellent. You cannot legally do that, and the southpaw allowed three runs in that frame; three more than Gerrit Cole allowed in his six innings, so it’s the fifth loss of the season for the 31-year-old southpaw. Still, this outing was better than the box score might suggest, and this was the first time in five starts that Kay has allowed more than two runs in an outing. He’ll be back on the bump Sunday against the Rays if there’s no change to the rotation order for Chicago.
Anthony Kay

CWS Starting Pitcher #18

Anthony Kay allowed five hits and two runs with two walks and four strikeouts across five innings in a win over the Rangers on Wednesday.

This was a laborious five innings from Kay. After giving up a home run in the second, he put runners in scoring position in each of the third, fourth and fifth innings. The most stressful of those was the fourth when he loaded the bases with zero outs and somehow escaped with just one run scoring. It wasn’t pretty, but he got the job done and forced 15 whiffs in the process. That was tied for the second-most in a single game in his career. One other time where he forced at least 15 whiffs was way back in 2021. Otherwise, the other three have come in his last eight starts. Next up, he’s scheduled for a two-start week against the Yankees at home and Rays on the road.

The White Sox will start Anthony Kay, Davis Martin, and Sean Burke against the Blue Jays after the All-Star break.

The White Sox will return from the break with their top three starters going. This will also set up Erick Fedde for a two-start week against Texas and Houston the following week.

Shohei Ohtani was available to pinch-hit Sunday and is expected back in Monday’s lineup versus the Reds.

Dodgers manager Dave Roberts said Ohtani would have hit for Alex Call in the eighth Sunday night had there been any runners on base at the time. As it turned out, there wasn’t, so Call got to hit for himself with none on and two outs. He singled, Tommy Edman walked and then Mookie Betts hit a three-run homer, giving the Dodgers a 7-5 lead that stood up against the Nationals. Barring something strange, Ohtani will DH and hit in the leadoff spot Monday.

Orlando Ribalta was unavailable Sunday because of right forearm discomfort.

It sounds like Ribalta will go on the IL, probably for the rest of the season. He’d been one of the Nationals’ most reliable relievers since being recalled at the beginning of May, amassing a 3.77 ERA in 43 innings. The extent of the injury will likely dictate whether he sticks on the 40-man roster this winter.

Mookie Betts had a three-run homer and an RBI groundout in leading the Dodgers to a 7-5 win over the Nationals on Monday.

Betts’ homer off Will Dion came in the eighth and accounted for the final three runs of the game. He’s hitting .303 with five homers, eight doubles and 22 RBI in his last 25 games, raising his season OPS from .674 to .731.

Justin Wrobleski surrendered four runs in three-plus innings Sunday night in his start versus the Nationals.

All of the runs came in the fourth, when Wrobleski gave up a homer and then four more hits before being pulled. The Dodgers would rather be using Wrobleski as a reliever right now, but between Shohei Ohtani’s setback and Roki Sasaki and Eric Lauer landing on the IL, they’re lacking alternatives. They might go to Gavin Stone in this spot next weekend, assuming that he’s healthy after being scratched from his last Triple-A outing.

Bobby Miller recorded a win in his return to the majors after allowing one run in three innings Sunday night against the Nationals.

Good for Miller, who was making his first MLB appearance since May 24, 2025. It was his first win since Aug. 20, 2024. The one run he allowed came when he grazed Dylan Crews with a rain-slicked curveball in his first inning of work, forcing in a run. He retired seven in a row afterwards, though he did need Kyle Tucker to rob Harry Ford of a homer to pull that off. It’d be nice to see him stick around after this, but the Dodgers might swap him out in order to recall Emmet Sheehan prior to Monday’s game.

Tanner Scott had the night off after working three of the previous four days. Henriquez averaged 101.5 mph with his seven fastballs tonight. His last 13 appearances have seen him allow two hits, walk two and strike out 18 in 11 1/3 innings.

Andrew Alvarez yielded three runs in 4 1/3 innings Sunday night versus the Dodgers.

Alvarez allowed one run through four before giving up a leadoff single and an RBI double with one out in the fifth. That was enough to get him pulled, and Brad Lord came in and allowed the inherited runner to score. Alvarez did yield three runs or fewer for a seventh straight start, but with the early exits, he hasn’t won any of those. He’ll take on the Angels next weekend.

CJ Abrams delivered his 30th homer Sunday in a losing cause against the Dodgers.

Abrams hit a 415-foot homer off Justin Wrobleski to begin the fourth inning. He’s the 15th different shortstop to hit 30 homers in a season at age 25 or younger. Colson Montgomery has also done it this year. The other active players to pull it off are Francisco Lindor (three times), Manny Machado, Trevor Story, Fernando Tatis Jr., Bobby Witt Jr. (twice) and Gunnar Henderson.

Harry Ford doubled in two runs and walked twice against the Dodgers on Sunday night.

And his best at-bat was his lone out, which saw Kyle Tucker reach over the wall in right to rob him of a home run to right field. Ford is hitting .200/.319/.398 through 94 plate appearances. He seems ready to split time behind the plate with Keibert Ruiz next year.
