Blake Beavan scattered three runs and seven hits across 7 2/3 innings Wednesday, improving to 7-6 in Seattle's 5-3 win over the Blue Jays. Beavan struck out four, walked none and worked around two early homers in his third straight quality start. Beavan's recent spate of respectable pitching has lowered his ERA from 6.06 on July 17 to 5.06. The owner of a 1.22 WHIP and 48/12 K/BB ratio through 90 2/3 frames, he'll get the Orioles in Baltimore on Tuesday.
