Logan Webb named NL Pitcher of the Month despite rough Rockies loss

San Francisco Giants ace Logan Webb was honored as the National League Pitcher of the Month for June after delivering five starts with a 0.71 ERA, 29 strikeouts and only four walks, the best month by a Giant pitcher since 2005. His resurgence followed a stint on the injured list for knee bursitis earlier in the season.

A week later, Webb’s momentum stalled in Denver when he faced the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field. The high altitude appeared to affect his control, and he was pulled after three innings, having allowed seven earned runs on 11 hits. The Giants were routed 15‑3, matching career‑highs for earned runs and hits allowed. Webb described the outing as a “rough night” and noted difficulty adjusting to the conditions.
