I can’t believe you’re making me do this.
Anyway, I’m gonna go ahead and recap a game now and not mention something else I watched tonight.
The Indians lost tonight, 4-1.
For a full six innings, anyone on the Carlos Carrasco worry train could have politely gotten off. He shut down one of the league’s best offenses tonight with a killer mix of his change-up and slider — saved a couple times by the quick reflexes of Roberto Perez’s glove bailing him out. For most of the night, anyway.
Carrasco cruised through the first six innings, striking out seven and holding the Astros to just a handful of hits, which combined with Carlos Santana’s early lead-off home run, looked enough to let the Indians squeak out a victory.
