Mariners' Hisashi Iwakuma: Keeps rolling in Saturday blowout

Iwakuma (11-6) gave up two earned runs on four hits and three walks in Saturday's 14-5 victory over the Blue Jays. He struck out three.

Analysis:

The veteran right-hander had the luxury of being staked to a 6-1 lead by the home half of the fourth, allowing him to cruise to his fourth straight victory. Iwakuma has really hit his stride over the last three outings in particular, striking out 17 and surrendering only three earned runs on 11 hits and seven walks over 19.2 innings over that span. He'll look to make it five consecutive wins when he takes on the Cubs next Friday.
