Manager Buck Showalter told MASN's Jim Hunter on "O's Xtra" that McFarland's grandmother passed away. A player must remain on the bereavement list for three days. McFarland earned the win today in Seattle by pitching a scoreless ninth inning, striking out the first two Seattle batters that he faced. He's 4-2 with a 3.07 ERA this season. McFarland also worked 2 2/3 scoreless innings yesterday in a 4-3 loss. The Orioles have optioned reliever Preston Guilmet five times this season. Could he be headed back to Baltimore?
