Sears (11-11) yielded four runs on seven hits and a walk over six innings Sunday, striking out four and taking a loss against the White Sox. Most of the damage against Sears came in the first inning; he gave up an RBI single to Andrew Vaughn before Gavin Sheets belted a two-run shot. Bryan Ramos then knocked a solo homer in the sixth. Sears has given up at least four runs in three of his last five outings, resulting in a 4.71 ERA over 28.2 innings. His season ERA now sits at 4.24 with a 127:44 K:BB through 30 starts. Sears is in line for a home matchup with the Yankees this weekend.

Sears allowed four hits and two walks while striking out one over six scoreless innings in a no-decision versus the Astros on Tuesday. Sears was given the start on short notice after Osvaldo Bido (wrist) landed on the injured list earlier in the day. It worked out well, as Sears turned in his first scoreless outing since July 30, though the Athletics' bullpen couldn't maintain the 2-0 lead Sears exited the game with after six frames. The southpaw lowered his ERA to 4.18 with a 1.19 WHIP and 123:43 K:BB through 163.2 innings over 29 starts this season. He's lined up to make his next start on the road versus the White Sox in what would be a highly favorable matchup.

Sears (11-9) earned the win in Friday's 9-2 victory over Texas, allowing one run on five hits and two walks over seven innings. He struck out four. The Oakland southpaw picked up his fifth win of the second half with this 97-pitch performance while earning his 11th quality start of the season. The only blemish on Sears' evening was a 406-foot solo homer allowed to Nathaniel Lowe in the second inning. The 28-year-old has been a solid contributor since the All-Star break, pitching to a 3.53 ERA, 1.10 WHIP and 41:8 K:BB across 51 innings. Sears is scheduled to make his next start at home against the Mariners.

Sears (10-9) took the loss Friday, surrendering seven runs (five earned) on nine hits and a walk over 3.2 innings in an 11-3 loss to the Brewers. He struck out three. The southpaw saw his four-game quality start streak end with a resounding thud, as Rhys Hoskins and Joey Ortiz took him deep in a five-run second inning for Milwaukee. Sears has given up three runs or fewer in eight of his last 11 starts, but he's been hammered for at least seven runs in each of the other three -- volatility that has left him with a 4.50 ERA in 62 innings over that stretch despite a 1.18 WHIP and 58:10 K:BB. Sears will try to shake it off in his next outing, which is scheduled to come on the road next week in Cincinnati.

Sears (10-8) earned the win against the Blue Jays on Sunday, allowing three runs on three hits and three walks with four strikeouts over seven innings. Sears completed seven innings for the third consecutive outing and was even pushed into the eighth, but he walked two batters without recording an out in the frame. The southpaw has gone 6-1 since the calendar flipped to July, allowing three or fewer earned runs in each of the victories. On the season, he owns a 4.32 ERA, 1.19 WHIP and 101:37 K:BB across 133.1 innings and lines up for a home matchup with the Giants next week.
