Beating up on bad teams is fun, and that’s just what the Cleveland Guardians did tonight. Mostly.
They finished the game with a 10-6 win, but it felt a lot closer than it should have been considering they scored four in the first inning and reached double-digit runs by the end of the game. Before we get to the pitching and defensive troubles, though, let’s talk big dingers.
Myles Straw got things started with a lead-off home run, and in true Myles Straw fashion, it was a homer hit at only 94 mph. Not the weakest home run by any stretch but definitely on the weaker side since baseball began measuring exit velocities.
