Hellickson struck out eight and walked one while giving up two runs on three hits over 6.1 innings against the Blue Jays on Saturday. He did not factor in the decision, but Hellickson was sharp again while lowering his season ERA to 2.61. The eight strikeouts were a season high, while Hellickson has fanned 19 batters over his last 17.1 innings (three starts) and maintaining good control (four walks). He'll face the Orioles at Camden Yards on Thursday in his next scheduled start.
