The Cleveland Indians did it again, somehow.
Trailing 3-1 late against the Pittsburgh Pirates, the Tribe mounted yet another rally, scoring three runs in the ninth inning to claim their third walkoff win this week.
This was a game that appeared all but over before the ninth inning. Up to that point, the Indians had only managed one hit all night and even that was a bunt single by Delino DeShields in the seventh inning, breaking up what had been a combined no-hitter for Pittsburgh. The Tribe’s lone score had come in the first inning after walking the bases loaded to start the game and scratching across a run on a double play.
