After a very disappointing loss to the Phillies yesterday, the Cleveland Guardians came back today looking for victory to book end the series.
Luis Ortiz had a strong first inning for the Guards, looking like he was going to make a great start against the Phillies line up. Ortiz had a 12 pitch first inning, giving up a lead off single but getting the outs with a GIDP and a strike out on Bryce Harper. The Guardians tried to strike first offensively to give Ortiz a cushion.
Steven Kwan and José Ramírez reached base with singles, but Daniel Schneemann flied out to left and Carlos Santana grounded into a double play to end the inning.
