Blanks Baltimore over seven frames
Suarez (6-4) earned the win against the Orioles on Friday, allowing five hits and one walk while striking out three across seven scoreless innings.
Analysis
Friday was a nice bounce-back performance from Suarez after his last outing against the Yankees on Sunday, when he allowed six runs over 5.1 innings in a loss. The veteran southpaw induced only three whiffs, but he also recorded 10 groundouts while allowing one baserunner in five of his seven frames, needing only 91 pitches (61 strikes) to complete seven scoreless. This was Suarez's first scoreless start of six or more innings since June 19 against the Mariners. His next start is lined up for next week at home against the Angels.

Rough outing in New York
Suarez (5-4) took the loss Sunday against the Yankees, allowing six runs on nine hits and two walks over 5.1 innings. He struck out two.
Analysis
Suarez held the Yankees off the board through four innings Sunday before things fell apart with one out in the fifth. The southpaw gave up a two-run single to Paul Goldschmidt before Heliot Ramos extended the lead to 5-0 with a three-run blast. Suarez has been inconsistent since returning from the IL in late July -- he's now given up 11 runs over 15.2 innings in his last three outings. His ERA now sits at 3.64 on the season with a 1.24 WHIP and 119:39 K:BB across 24 starts (123.2 innings). Suarez will look to bounce back his next time out, tentatively scheduled to come on the road against the Orioles.
