On Sept. 7, 2017, the Cleveland Indians picked up an 11-2 win over the White Sox on their run toward the American League Central title. With the division title all but wrapped up, Cleveland’s front office elected to give some opportunities to plenty of players on the roster who hadn’t played much throughout the summer.
Francisco Mejia recorded one of the two hits he had with Cleveland. Erik González had the only multi-homer game of his career. Even current Boston Red Sox chief baseball officer Craig Breslow got into the fun by tossing a scoreless ninth inning.
