Top of the Order Leads Indians to 7-6 Win Over Houston

Cleveland– The Indians topped the Houston Astros 7-6 on Wednesday night, and they have the top of their order to thank.

Carlos Santana went 2-4 in the lead off spot, driving in the winning runs in the sixth inning on a double down the right field line that plated Jason Kipnis and Abraham Almonte.

In four plate appearances, Francisco Lindor was walked and recorded a double. He would go on to score a run in both the first and fifth innings.

But perhaps most impressive, was Michael Brantley. In his four at-bats, Brantley recorded two hits and three RBIs.
