Indians 3, Astros 1: Thursday's One Last Thing on an Indians starting pitcher setting another record

The Indians found a power surge in the sixth inning with four consecutive extra-base hits and downed the Houston Astros 3-1 Thursday night for their third straight win.

Cody Anderson was strong again in his fourth career outing, throwing 6 2/3 innings and allowing only one run on three hits.

Thursday’s One Last Thing: The starting rotation, again, set a record. It’s becoming a habit.

A couple of weeks ago, Anderson, Danny Salazar and Carlos Carrasco became the first pitchers since at least the modern era (since 1961) to have a perfect game after five complete innings in three straight games, according to Elias.
