The Indians traveled to Minnesota for what may be the most crucial series of the season.
Mike Clevinger took the mound brushing off pregame jokes of him being the veteran pitcher of the rotation.
His pitching performance was every bit worthy of that title. He had a career high 117 pitches in 7 innings with 3 hits, 2 runs and 9 strikeouts. It was imperative that he was able to go to deep into the game and he delivered.
The Tribe’s offense got to Twins starter Kyle Gibson by showing a lot of patience at the plate.
