| Toronto, ON (MySportsbook) - Jarrod Washburn tossed eight innings of one-run ball as the Seattle Mariners avoided a three-game sweep at the hands of the Toronto Blue Jays with a 5-1 victory at Rogers Centre. Washburn (5-9), who is widely speculated to change uniforms as the trade deadline approaches, raised his stock with Sunday's performance, as he allowed just four hits to go with a pair of walks and strikeouts in halting Seattle's seven-game slide. "I'd be lying if I said it wasn't on my mind," Washburn sa |

Marcum was placed on the DL back in late June with arm issues, but after a month off the mound, the right-hander returned to the hill this past Tuesday. Unfortunately, Marcum did not |

After posting eight runs in both of the first two games of the four-game set with Toronto , the O's forgot how to hit, managing just a single run in the concluded game from Wednesday (5-1) and Thursday's scheduled contest (7-1), dropping Balt |
