Corey Kluber got saddled with an Opening Day loss to start the 2019 season, but as is often the case, it’s not because of anything he did wrong. But rather the rest of the Cleveland Indians team…
Kluber tossed six shutout innings before the Twins were able to scrape something together in the seventh, plating two runs on a double by Marwin Gonzalez. As it turns out, that’s all that was needed in a 2-0 Indians loss.
The Tribe offense recorded two hits off Twins ace Jose Berrios, who admittedly looked every bit the part of an Opening Day pitcher as he cruised through 7.
