Indians conjure more late magic, defeat Mariners 5-4
Photo by Jason Miller/Getty ImagesTerry Francona referred to the game as “A weird outing” for Carlos Carrasco, and that’s a fair assessment. Carrasco didn’t earn the win but drove the Indians to a winning position by allowing *checks notes* four home runs in 7.2 IP.
Wait, what?
All four home runs were solo. All four were mistakes. Is it normal for every mistake to be punished?
In life, yes. In baseball, no, but that’s how it went for the Tribe tonight.
Still, a two-run shot from Carlos Santana in the bottom of the 8th put the Tribe on top by one to steal another close game from the Mariners.
