Zach Plesac took the mound for the Indians as they looked to snap their four-game losing streak Saturday night against the Minnesota Twins. Plesac would surrender a season high five runs in the game, as the Twins took down the Indians 8-4.
The Indians opened the game on offense with Francisco Lindor once again hitting in the lead-off spot. The change hasn’t helped much as once again the Indians started slow offensively, with a drawn walk by José Ramírez being the only offense mounted in the top of the first.
In the bottom, Plesac would walk Jorge Polanco to start his night, before three straight outs of Josh Donaldson, Nelson Cruz, and Eddie Rosario to skate through the inning.
