Indians starting pitcher Shaun Marcum had arguably his finest start of the season during Thursday's 6-0 win against the Mariners. Although, Thursday's outing might have passed for one of the best in his career as well.

Marcum (3-1) was unhittable for 4 1/3 innings Thursday. He didn't allow his first hit until Mark Trumbo's single with one out in the fifth inning. The only other hit Marcum allowed was a leadoff douvle to Robinson Cano in the seventh inning.

Marcum did not walk a batter and struck out five. He did hit one batter and threw 68 of 106 pitches for strikes.

''It was nice to go out there and be able to locate the ball and take what I've been doing between starts and actually have it happen,'' Marcum said, per the Associated Press.

The right-hander will be back on the mound Tuesday against the Cubs.
