Morton (14-6) earned the win Sunday, giving up one earned run on four hits and three walks with eight strikeouts over 5.1 innings in the Rays' 8-2 victory over the Indians.
Morton guided the Rays to a huge series sweep against the Indians after he got shelled by the Astros in his previous outing. He let up an RBI double in the second inning and was in a bit of a jam but was able to escape and finish the rest of his outing cleanly. He needed 108 pitches to get through just 5.1 innings, which isn't spectacular, but the bullpen got the job done for the remainder of the game. Morton now sports a 3.06 ERA and a 209:50 K:BB ratio through 170.1 innings. He looks ahead to his next start at home against Toronto on Friday.
