If you read IPL hoping to find out how the Indians did on a given day, then I probably should have put a SPOILER ALERT in the title of this post, because really the title says it all. On Friday night at Progressive Field, the Orioles did everything just a little bit better than the Indians did. The O’s pitched a little better than the Indians did. Their batters hit a little better than ours did. And although neither team made any errors, the Orioles fielded the baseball a little better than the indians did.
When you’re outperformed in all three of those categories, you just aren’t going to win the game.
