Indians improve(!) to 17-23
Jason Kipnis doubles, Carlos Santana walk and Michael Brantley singles in Kipnis. Ryan Raburn grounds into a double play, driving in Santana and then Nick Swisher and Mike Aviles hit back to back home runs. That all happened in the top of the 1st inning and the ballgame was essentially over, as the Indians went up 4-0 after the first. Sure, some other things happened, and we'll talk about them, but that was the inciting incident and essential the resolution. We'd have a mini crisis and climax later, but the Tribe offense put the ballgame away before the White Sox even had a chance to bat.
