CHICAGO -- Indians starter Trevor Bauer joined elite company Wednesday night. By striking out 12 White Sox hitters, Bauer became just the third pitcher in Cleveland history to whiff at least 10 in four straight starts, joining Hall of Famer Bob Feller and two-time American League Cy Young Award winner Corey Kluber.
However, Bauer was outdueled by White Sox starter Dylan Covey as Cleveland's bats couldn't come up with a big hit late in a 3-2 loss at Guaranteed Rate Field. Bauer gave up only four hits in 7 2/3 innings, but the Indians came up just short despite 14 knocks.
