Indians pitcher Justin Masterson tossed three scoreless innings Thursday.

Masterson pitched around trouble in the first, getting out of a bases loaded jam with only one out. He struck out Welington Castillo and got Mike Olt to fly out to end the inning. He faced the minimum in the second, and allowed one single in the third. Masterson struck out three and walked one in the appearance. 

Masterson is coming off a season in which he posted a 3.45 ERA in 193 innings.
