McHugh improved to 11-10 after tossing seven scoreless innings in Friday's 6-0 win over the Mariners. He allowed two hits and two walks while striking out six.
McHugh shut down Seattle over seven strong innings, lowering his ERA to 4.66 in the process. It's been an uneven season for the 29-year-old, who's struggled to maintain any sort of consistency a year after winning 19 games. He's been pitching better recently, however, going 3-0 with a 2.42 ERA and a 1.03 WHIP over his last four starts. He'll look to stay hot in Wednesday's road start against a weak A's offense.
