Graveman (10-10) gave up eight earned runs on 12 hits and three walks over five-plus innings in Saturday's 14-3 loss to the Mariners. He also recorded a strikeout.
The right-hander's troubles came over the first three innings, during which he gave up seven of his eight earned runs. Graveman didn't give up any homers, but yielded RBI singles to Kyle Seager, Nelson Cruz and Jesus Sucre, while also giving up a run-scoring double to Nori Aoki. The poor outing was somewhat surprising, considering Graveman has pieced together a streak of four straight quality starts that included a complete-game, two-hit shutout of the White Sox back on Aug. 19. He'll look to put this one behind him when he faces the Royals next Thursday.
