May 13 Carmona tossed a five-hitter in the opener of the Indians' doubleheader against Toronto, leading Cleveland to a 3-0 victory. The Blue Jays won the nightcap, 3-0, in 10 innings.

Advice: Carmona, who had not received a decision in his last two starts, improved to 4-1 with a 2.40 ERA in eight starts this season. The right-hander, though, is still battling control issues, as he walked four and has issued 17 free passes over his last four games. He is 2-0 with a 1.88 ERA in two career starts versus Toronto.
