Fires 5.2 strong innings Brown took a no-decision against the Athletics on Saturday, allowing one run on seven hits and three walks in 5.2 innings. He struck out four.

The right-hander has been very consistent as of late, pitching at least five innings in six consecutive starts while giving up three runs or fewer each time out during that period. Brown is set to take a 3.51 ERA, 1.33 WHIP and 76:43 K:BB over 74.1 innings into a road matchup against a hot Mets lineup.

In total, Brown owns a 3.67 ERA, 1.30 WHIP and 72:40 K:BB across 68.2 innings (13 starts) and is tentatively scheduled to pitch Saturday against the Athletics.

The right-hander has surrendered 12 runs over 28.1 innings while adding a 28:13 K:BB over five starts since the All-Star break, providing solid but unremarkable pitching in most of his outings in that stretch. For the year, he's at a 3.68 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 67:35 K:BB through 63.2 innings over 12 starts. Brown's next start is projected to be in a favorable home matchup versus the Angels.
