The Cleveland Indians keep getting stellar pitching performances, unfortunately for Corey Kluber it wasn’t enough against the Chicago Cubs. After flirting with another no-hitter, Kluber allowed just one run on and RBI triple from Anthony Rizzo of the glove of a diving Jerry Sands. His duel with Jon Lester proved to be epic. On a day when the wind was gusting out of Wrigley Field, both pitched like aces and kept the ball in the park.
After Carlos Santana came up with a clutch RBI single in the top of the ninth to tie the game at one, the Tribe turned to hard-throwing Zach McAllister to push it to extra innings.
