Mariners' Robbie Ray throws seven shutout innings behind new two-seamerDespite loss to Red Sox, Robbie Ray's new arsenal encourages Mariners manager Scott Servas: “I thought he was right on top of his game.”
Robbie Ray - Fires seven scoreless inningsRay didn't factor into the decision during Sunday's 2-0 loss to Boston, allowing three hits and one walk with four strikeouts in seven scoreless innings.
ImpactRay and Boston starter Kutter Crawford engaged in an unlikely pitcher's duel, which prevented the reigning Cy Young winner from earning the victory despite posting a season-high 74 game score. The 30-year-old lefty has been mostly middling this season with an ERA stuck between 3.91 and 4.97 since April 13 but has been a workhorse, as his 76.2 innings rank third in MLB. Ray's slated to pitch again next weekend against the Angels.

Tanner Houck - Logs second save of weekendHouck saved Sunday's 2-0 win against the Mariners, striking out one in a 1-2-3 ninth inning.
ImpactHouck needed just eight pitches to notch his second save in as many appearances and is primed to receive more opportunities ahead with fellow closer Hansel Robles blowing a save Saturday. The 25-year-old has fired 16 scoreless innings across his eight appearances -- all in relief -- with 16 strikeouts and four walks in the span. Houck's lowered his seasonal ERA from 5.40 to 3.38 with the impressive stretch and should continue to see a high-leverage role in Boston's bullpen.

Kutter Crawford - Dominant across five framesCrawford didn't factor into the decision during Sunday's 2-0 victory over Seattle, allowing one hit and four walks with seven strikeouts in five scoreless innings.
ImpactMaking his first start of the season and first appearance since May 13, Crawford took a no-hitter into the fifth inning. He was wildly effective as just 43 of 83 pitches went for strikes with an impressive 13 of the swinging variety in registering seven strikeouts, though the converse was the subpar four free passes. The 26-year-old is slated to start again next weekend against St. Louis and could remain part of the rotation if he continues to pitch like he did Sunday.
