Sox Two 8th Inning Homers Stun Carrasco and the Indians in Tough 6-5 Setback at Progressive Field

The Indians are in a tough spot with the Twins never losing a game it feels like, and a loss like what they suffered Tuesday hurts even more after the Tribe held a 5-2 lead entering the 8th inning with the Progressive Field return of Carlos Carrasco.

As Carrasco got a standing ovation from those at the park, he just didn’t have it on the mound, and it showed as Chicago hit two back-breaking homers, a three-run shot and a solo shot to steal a 6-5 that was deflating to say the least.

Carrasco was pitching in just his second game back for the Indians, and while he gave up a run-scoring hit on Sunday, this time out the team really needed him to get three outs to get to Brad Hand in the ninth.
