CLEVELAND -- The Indians launched a pair of home runs on Tuesday and nothing else. It was another cold game for the offense on another bitter night in Cleveland, but this Tribe roster is proving resilient in light of its overpowering pitching.
The players inside Cleveland's clubhouse know they would likely be dealing with a much deeper slump if it were not for the arms that make up the pitching staff. Instead, the Indians continued to hold the top spot -- along with the Twins -- in the American League Central after eking out a 2-1 victory over the Tigers at Progressive Field.
