Jered Weaver spun nine shutout innings Friday, limiting the Mariners to just seven hits and a walk while striking out eight in the 1-0 extra innings win.
Weaver doesn't need to have all his stuff working to befuddle the Mariners' bats, but he had it going nonetheless in this one. Remarkably, it's the 15th time in 24 starts this season that he's given up one or zero runs. Weaver is expected to drop the appeal of his suspension following this start, so his next outing will likely come next weekend in Toronto. He'll take a 1.78 ERA, 0.94 WHIP and 150/39 K/BB ratio north of the border.
