The Cleveland Indians did not go quietly in their seventh straight loss — the Chicago Cubs won 6-5 on a walkoff hit-by-pitch — which is either a sign of progress or an act of cruelty. You decide.
But you know what? Delino DeShields was 3-for-3 at the plate against Yu Darvish. Two balls went over his head in fifth inning as part of a Cubs rally to tie the game, but the Indians’ center fielder had a run-scoring bunt single in the third, doubled in the fifth and came around to score, and added another double in the seventh.
