Mike Clevinger had a solid outing in Chicago on Thursday, allowing 1 ER on 3 hits, striking out 3 and walking 1 in 4 IP.
The Indians have a fairly rough schedule with very few off days in September. However, the offense decided to take the day off on Thursday as they scored just 1 ER on 4 hits against one of MLB’s worst starters this season. In fact, just three of those hits were off of James Shields; the fourth came against closer David Robertson in the ninth inning. With a 1-1 tie entering the bottom of the ninth, the Indians were just asking for Chicago to walk-off with a win, which they did after a bloop single RBI.
