Marc Rzepczynski takes loss

Marc Rzepczynski (2-1) allowed a single and a walk to the only two batters he faced, but suffered the loss when both came around to score in Seattle's 6-2 defeat to the Astros.

Fantasy Implications: Rzepczynski entered the game to start the sixth inning, and gave up a single to Marwin Gonzalez and a walk to Brian McCann. He was relieved by Nick Vincent, who surrendered a line drive double to Alex Bregman, allowing both Gonzalez and McCann to score. The two earned- runs charged to Rzepczynski caused his ERA to rise from 3.10 to 3.72. The veteran southpaw has been a consistent bridge to the back end of the bullpen, and has 19 holds on the year, a career best. Consider Sunday's performance a minor blip on the radar.
