Yu Chang had three hits, Bobby Bradley had two, and Ka’ai Tom had a homer. Ok, now onto what you really care about: Danny Salazar was superb in his four innings. The Tribe starter struck out five and walked one and didn’t allow a single base-runner to cross the plate. Of his 69 pitches, 43 were strikes.
In equally exciting news, James Karinchak — the heir apparent to the Indians bullpen — struck out two of the four batters he faced and lowered his ERA to a comical 6.75.

This game only went six and a half innings due to rain, but the RubberDucks put up enough runs beforehand in a five-run fourth inning.
