RHP Jerad Eickhoff lasted six innings in a loss to Colorado on Monday night, giving up nine hits and four runs, all earned. He threw 93 pitches (62 for strikes), striking out four without issuing a walk as his record fell to 0-5 with a 4.70 ERA. Seven of those hits -- and all of his runs allowed -- came in the third and sixth innings. "He pitched okay," Phillies manager Pete Mackanin said. "Eickhoff gave up four runs but I wouldn't call it a bad outing. We need to swing the bats."

RHP Jerad Eickhoff (0-4) took the loss as the Phillies fell 5-1 to Texas on Tuesday, but he was a better pitcher than he showed in recent starts. Eickhoff, acquired by the Phillies in Texas' trade for Cole Hamels, gave up three runs (two earned) on seven hits and two walks over six innings, his longest outing in a month. He has had trouble the second time around lineups, but that didn't affect him on Tuesday. He worked around baserunners in the second, third and sixth innings. "Eickhoff pitched pretty darn good," Phillies manager Pete Makanin said. "He had trouble throughout the game but made pitches when he had to. He looked closer himself than he has the last two or three starts."

RHP Jerad Eickhoff is slated to start Tuesday at Texas against the Rangers, following an off day Monday. He is 0-3 with a 4.76 ERA this year for the Phillies and has never faced the Rangers.

RHP Jerad Eickhoff did nothing to improve upon his two previous outings Tuesday. The righty failed to make it through four innings for the first time in his career. Eickhoff went 3 2/3 and was blasted for eight hits and five runs. He walked three and struck out two, marking the first time he's had more walks than strikeouts in a game. "His command was poor," Phillies manager Pete Mackanin said. "I've never seen him like that before." Eickhoff has given up 14 runs in his last three starts. His ERA has jumped to 4.76 on the year.

RHP Jerad Eickhoff (0-2, 3.56 ERA) makes his sixth start of the season in Wednesday's third game of the series. He took the loss in a 5-3 setback last week at the Dodgers, the fourth Phillies loss in his five starts. He gave up five runs on nine hits -- both season highs -- in a 5 2/3 inning outing as a lack of a curveball was the culprit. "I had it in the first inning and I just couldn't find that release point after that," he told reporters after the loss.

RHP Jerad Eickhoff (0-2) said his inability to command his curveball cost him and the Phillies against the Dodgers on Friday night. Eickhoff allowed a season-high five runs and nine hits in 5 2/3 innings in a 5-3 loss to the Dodgers. "It just comes down to the curveball," said Eickhoff, who is 0-1 with a 6.94 ERA in two career starts against the Dodgers. "I had it in the first inning there and then just couldn't find the release point. I struggled with it. I kept them off-balance with the slider and located fastballs. I mean they had seven and eight singles or something like that? So the ball just fell where it did today. It was kind of frustrating, but yeah, just the curveball, I couldn't put them away."

RHP Jerad Eickhoff pitched five innings of one-run baseball while taking a no-decision in a 4-3 Phillies win Saturday night over Atlanta. Eickhoff struck out seven and walked two.

The Phillies are not scoring runs right now for Eickhoff. They're averaging 1.75 runs per nine innings with Eickhoff pitching. Only three pitchers in baseball have worse support.

RHP Jerad Eickhoff take the mound Monday evening as the Phillies open up a three-game series against the New York Mets. Eickhoff (0-1, 2.70 ERA) took the loss in his season debut, a 2-0 defeat at the hands of the Cincinnati Reds, giving up those two runs on five hits in 6 2/3 innings, striking out six and walking one. A lack of run support isn't anything new for Eickhoff, who's gotten either one or zero runs from the offense in 18 of his 42 career starts. "I can't control that," Eickhoff told MLB.com. "Those guys are busting their butts. They're working their butts off every day to get hits and to work in the cage. I can't control it. I'm trying to get outs."

RHP Jerad Eickhoff had an outstanding curveball for most of his Wednesday night outing, but it was curveballs that produced the winning tallies in a 2-0 loss at Cincinnati. Joey Votto's solo homer and a RBI double by Zack Cozart broke a scoreless tie in the seventh inning. "The homer to Votto came on a curve," Eickhoff said. "One of those things where you tip your cap. I fooled him a little bit, but he kept his hands back. He's a strong guy, and he was able to hit it out of the park." Eickhoff issued one walk and struck out six in 6 2/3 innings.

RHP Jerad Eickhoff was the first of the five players obtained from Texas for LHP Cole Hamels to make an impact with the Phillies. He was 11-14 with a 3.65 ERA, a 1.16 WHIP, 187 strikeouts in 33 starts. He is the fourth Phillies pitcher 26 or younger to make 33 starts in a season since 1993. He allowed three runs or fewer in 27 outings, joining Roy Halladay, Hamels and Curt Schilling as the only Philadelphia starters in the last two decades to accomplish the feat.

RHP Jerad Eickhoff will look to continue his late-season surge Tuesday night, when he takes the mound for the Phillies in the opener of a three-game series against the Atlanta Braves at Turner Field. Eickhoff earned the win in his most recent start last Wednesday, when he gave up three runs on six hits and one walk while striking out six over seven innings as the Phillies beat the Chicago White Sox, 8-3. It was the sixth straight start in which Eickhoff has allowed three earned runs or fewer and the 10th time he has done so in 13 starts since the All-Star Break. Eickhoff is 2-1 with a 1.67 ERA in five career starts against the Braves.

RHP Jerad Eickhoff (11-14) earned a win over the White Sox on Wednesday night, going seven innings in an 8-3 victory. After giving up a game-opening home run, Eickhoff cruised through six innings before the White Sox started to catch up to him in the seventh, hitting back-to-back solo home runs before he could get out of trouble. He finished with a line of six hits, three runs, six strikeouts and a walk while throwing 93 pitches (62 strikes). "He pitched very well, and to start the season 2-8, to have an 11-14 record is really outstanding," manager Pete Mackanin said. "He's been real consistent for us."

RHP Jerad Eickhoff, Wednesday night's starter against Chicago, has been steady all season for the Phillies despite a general lack of run support (3.4 runs/game). He is 10-14 with a 3.74 ERA in his first full season. Since the All-Star break, he's 4-4 with a 3.66 ERA, though he's coming off a rough outing: six runs (three earned) in 6 2/3 innings of a 15-2 loss to Pittsburgh last Thursday.

RHP Jerad Eickhoff has gone exactly six innings in each of his past five starts. In that span, Eickhoff has a 3.30 ERA with 23 strikeouts and seven walks in 30 innings. Eickhoff is not familiar with the Pirates, and the Pirates are not familiar with Eickhoff. Thursday's start will be the righty's first against Pittsburgh in his career, and no current Pirate has an at-bat against him.

RHP Jerad Eickoff pitched well but had little to show for it Saturday. He went six innings and gave up five hits and no runs to the Nationals. "That was a great pitching performance by him," manager Pete Mackanin said. "He mixed his pitches pretty well. He fought, he works hard. He was really good. I kind of expected him to be this kind of pitcher. He doesn't get rattled. He looks like he's out there to beat you."

RHP Jerad Eickoff will start on Saturday in Washington. He is 10-13 with a 3.86 ERA this year and is 0-1 this season against the Nationals, with a 4.50 ERA. The young righty is 1-1, 3.46 in two starts against Washington in his career and has won five of his last six decisions overall this season.
