ST. PETERSBURG -- Carlos Carrasco and Collin Cowgill traded high-fives as they walked in the Indians' clubhouse after the right-hander made another fond memory at Tropicana Field.
Nine months after his near no-hitter against the Rays, Carrasco was stellar again Wednesday night in stifling Tampa Bay for eight innings during a 4-1 victory. His touch at a comfortable ballpark remained strong in allowing only one run and four hits with eight strikeouts and one walk, before Cody Allen earned the save in the ninth.
Afterward, with the bass from victory music bumping nearby, Carrasco was pleased.
