The Indians fell to the Arizona Diamondbacks, 12-3, in Goodyear Ballpark on Sunday. Arizona jumped out to an early 5-0 lead against starter and loser Chih-Wei Hu and Neil Ramirez and never looked back.

Hu allowed three runs in two innings for the Indians, and Ramirez gave up a two-run homer in the third to Christian Walker.

The Indians plated their first run in the 3rd inning on consecutive doubles by Trayce Thompson and Daniel Johnson, and got a 2-run homer from Oscar Mercado (2-for-3) in the 9th inning.
