Mariners pitcher Brandon Maurer (1-4) continued to struggle on Thursday, dropping his fourth straight decision in his team's 7-5 defeat to the Angels. The right-hander permitted five runs on six hits and four walks while striking out two over four innings.

During his four-start skid covering 19 1/3 innings, Maurer has allowed 15 earned runs. His ERA has ballooned from 6.92 to 7.52 over that span. He will look to get back on track Tuesday at Atlanta.
