Happy Friday, everyone!
Indians 2, Astros 1
Trevor Bauer came through in a big way against his former college teammate Gerrit Cole, and the Tribe offense did just enough to eek out a win in game 1 of this four-game series.
Tribe news
The Tribe won’t need a fifth starter for a few weeks, so Jefry Rodriguez has been sent to Columbus to make room for Tyler Clippard, who has been working through an injury. Clippard will add some length to a bullpen in desperate need of it.
We miss you, Doctor Smooth.
