Darvish (5-1) picked up the win over Seattle on Sunday, allowing one run on seven hits with five strikeouts in seven innings in a 9-2 win.

Darvish was engaged in a pitcher's duel with opposing starter Justin Dunn, who actually accounted for the one run Darvish surrendered, until San Diego broke the game open with four runs in both the sixth and seventh innings. Darvish has been supremely dominant since Opening Day, allowing no more than two runs in each of the ensuing eight starts to the tune of a sparkling 1.75 ERA.
