Farquhar was credited with his third hold of the season in Tuesday's victory over the Blue Jays, giving up a hit and a walk over two-thirds of an inning. He also recorded a strikeout.
Farquhar came in to relieve Dana Eveland in the seventh with Kevin Pillar on first and was able to wiggle out of the inning after making matters interesting. He got things started off right by getting the pinch-hitting Dioner Navarro to fly out, but then gave up a single to Devon Travis and issued a free pass to Jose Bautista, loading the bases. However, the 29-year-old bore down to whiff the dangerous Edwin Encarnacion to end the inning, notching his ninth straight scoreless appearance in the process. After his ERA reached an unsightly 6.94 on Aug. 7, Farquhar has now lowered that figure by over three full runs over his subsequent 15 trips to the mound, giving up only two earned runs over the 17.1 innings during that span.
