Indians 17, Twins 4: Saturday’s One Last Thing on Abraham Almonte’s four-hit debut

The Indians crushed the Minnesota Twins 17-4 Saturday night.

The 17 runs were a season high, and the most runs scored by the Indians since a 17-7 win against Texas on June 9, 2014. It’s also the most runs they’ve scored at Progressive Field since beating the New York Yankees 19-1 on July 4, 2006.

Saturday’s One Last Thing: Expectations weren’t particularly high, but Abraham Almonte certainly announced his arrival in Cleveland.

When Almonte was acquired from the San Diego Padres in exchange for relief pitcher Marc Rzepczynski, it wasn’t exactly a blockbuster deal.
