Jeimer Candelario’s walk-off home run in the twelfth inning lifted the Detroit Tigers over the Cleveland Indians by a final score of 4-2 on Saturday. The game was sent to extras when Rajai Davis went yard in the eighth inning to even the score late.
Here’s the three takeaways from the loss.
1. Lack Of Hitting Throughout Lineup
Indians shortstop Francisco Lindor failed to record a hit on Saturday. He was not alone.
Cleveland’s offense sputtered across the finish line in a rough day at a plate. Seven hits in twelve innings is never a recipe for success.
