Tribe Strikes Early But Falter Late, Blue Jays Win 8-4; Three Takeaways From The Victory

By: Corey Perez

CLEVELAND, Ohio- Coming into Friday night’s game vs the Toronto Blue Jays, the Cleveland Indians were winners of five straight. After the first two innings, the Indians looked well on their way to another victory, as the bats came out hot knocking in four runs in the first two innings.

Then came the fourth inning, that four-to-nothing cushion the Tribe had built was erased in just one inning. Mike Clevinger had great control during the first three innings, but that all changed in the fourth as he walked two guys on.
