Brown did not factor into the decision in Friday's 7-5 loss to the Orioles, allowing two runs (one earned) on three hits and two walks with six strikeouts over six innings.
Brown induced just seven whiffs on 107 pitches, but he left the game with a 5-2 lead before the Orioles exploded for five runs in the eighth inning. The 25-year-old has logged three quality starts in four August outings while yielding two earned runs or fewer in each. On the season, he owns a 3.72 ERA, 1.32 WHIP and 151:52 K:BB across 140.1 innings and lines up to face the Royals at home next week.
