Detroit Tigers are no match for home run-happy Cleveland Indians, 10-0

At Progressive Field

What happened: The Detroit Tigers lost to the Cleveland Indians, 10-0, on Friday night at Progressive Field. It was a mismatch. Mike Fiers threw four innings, allowing four runs. The Indians beat up on right-hander Johnny Barbato, who allowed five runs in the bottom of the seventh inning. The Tigers offense remained asleep, with credit to Cleveland rookie righty Shane Bieber. The game began after a rain delay of one hour, 40 minutes. The Tigers totaled five hits. They are 36-40.
