The Indians second go-around against the Detroit Tigers got off to a much better start than the first one, as the team put up four runs in a solid 4-1 win over Detroit to move to 3-3 on the young season.
The win was led by a pair of important Tribesman, that being pitcher Zach Plesac (7 innings, no runs) and Franmil Reyes, (two homers).
There’s no question that Plesac is looking more and more like a solid number two in the rotation behind last year’s Cy Young award winner Shane Bieber.
Friday he didn’t walk a Tiger, he struck out six, and threw 97 pitches, 70 for strikes and lowered his ERA to 1.
