Maeda (7-6) allowed four runs on seven hits and three walks with five strikeouts over four innings in a loss Tuesday to Baltimore.
This marks just the second time all season Maeda has failed to make it through the fifth inning. Maeda still has yet to suffer a start in which he allows more than four runs, and that ability to avoid a blowup even when he is at his worst has helped Maeda maintain his sharp 3.07 ERA. As such, expect Maeda to bounce back well in his last start before the break Sunday against San Diego.
