Many moons ago Homer Bailey was a pitcher that looked like he could be a future ace of the Cincinnati Reds, hence why he was once handed a six-year, $105 million contract by the Indians neighbors from the south.
Last season Bailey was 1-14 with the Reds with an ERA over six, so entering Saturday night it was probably a good bet that the Indians offense would have a good night against the 32-year-old.
Think again.
In what can only be described as the low point of the year for the Indians offense, the team managed just two hits over seven innings against Bailey, and were blanked 3-0.
