Watkins (2-2) allowed four runs on three hits and two walks with four strikeouts in 5.2 innings, taking the loss Sunday versus Detroit.
Sunday was the second start in a row in which Watkins gave up four runs. Baltimore took an early 2-0 lead in the top of the first inning, but the right-hander gave it all back by the end of the first. He's posted a 3.81 ERA, 1.31 WHIP and 18:11 K:BB in 26 innings to begin his major-league career. The 28-year-old lines up for a tough start versus Tampa Bay next weekend.
