Indians Move Into Tie with Rays for Second AL Wild Card Spot Following 7-0 Shutout of Detroit

CLEVELAND – The 2019 season series against the Detroit Tigers is over, and for the Indians they are probably sad to see it end.

The Tribe didn’t just beat up the Motown Kitties, they dominated them, as with their 7-0 win on Thursday night at Progressive Field they end the season series beating Detroit in 18 of 19 meetings.

The win on the season puts the Tribe in a tie with the Tampa Bay Rays for the second wild card spot as each team is now at 90-63.

The Indians have nine games left, starting with three on Friday with the Philadelphia Phillies at Progressive Field before going to play three with the White Sox in Chicago and three in Washington to wrap up the regular season.
