Cashner started out strong and didn't allow a hit through the first four innings, but the Yankees erupted for three in the fifth and two more in the seventh the chase the right-hander. It was the first time in his last six starts the 31-year-old allowed more than three runs. It was also only the second time all season he recorded an out in the seventh inning. Cashner will carry a 4.56 ERA and 1.52 WHIP into his next start, as he is expected to close the Orioles' first half Sunday against the Rangers.
