Plesac’s Dominate Performance Lifts Indians Past Tigers 1-0

By Brendan Ward

After snapping the long losing streak last night in Detroit, the Indians looked to keep things going Friday against the Tigers.

The offensive struggles returned, forcing Indians starter Zach Plesac to pour in a dominating performance. Plesac went two outs into the eighth, striking out 11, while pitching a shutout to lead the Indians to the 1-0 victory.

Francisco Lindor walked to lead things off in the top of the first, however the offense would strand him at second base after Tigers starter Michael Fulmer sat down three straight after the walk.
