CLEVELAND -- After nearly a month on the disabled list, Cleveland Indians ace Corey Kluber will return to the mound Thursday afternoon for the finale game of a four-game series against the Oakland A's at Progressive Field.
It will be Kluber's first game appearance since a 5-2 loss to the Detroit Tigers on May 2. In that game, Kluber gave up five runs on seven hits in the third inning before being forced out due to an ailing back. He was placed on the DL the next day.
In six starts this season, Kluber is 3-2 with a 5.
