Cleveland Indians fans were expecting Dallas Keuchel to dominate on Tuesday, but Josh Tomlin‘s performance was a pleasant surprise.
Keuchel mowed down the Indians lineup, pitching the entire game and allowing just two earned runs on six hits. The two runs came on solo home runs, so the damage was limited.
Tomlin didn’t get the win, but he did have another great outing after his first two horrible starts to begin the season. He went six innings, allowing three earned runs on eight hits. He also struck out six, compared to the five struck out by Keuchel in nine innings.
