Mariners reliever Danny Farquhar slipped up for the first time since taking over the closer's role Wednesday, as he blew the save in a 5-4 loss to the Rays.
Farquhar was clearly not on his game Wednesday, as he failed to record an out in his blown save. He allowed a triple to open the outing, and ended up allowing two runs on four hits and a walk en route to the loss.
Farquhar had a 10-appearance scoreless streak come to an end with the outing. He is now five for six in save chances since taking over at the beginning of August. Farquhar's ERA for the season rose to 5.17.
