Carrasco’s Six Innings, Naquin’s 12th Inning Heroics, lift Indians to 2-1 Win over Cardinals

By Brendan Ward

Carlos Carrasco had a very rough outing last week against Detroit, however he would turn it around Saturday against the St. Louis Cardinals. Striking out six and allowing zero runs across six innings, Carrasco put the Indians in position to win.

A rough outing from James Karinchak tied the game in the seventh, and the Cardinals forced extra innings. To no avail as a Tyler Naquin RBI double in the 12th inning combined with some base-running miscues for the Cardinals lifted the Indians to a 2-1 victory.
