This weekend, the Indians laid down and died against the Blue Jays each time they fell behind. Tonight against the Rangers the jumped back up and tied, then eventually took the lead and held on to win 7-5. While it wasn’t always the good kind of exciting, the Indians may have played the most exciting game of their season tonight to finish April with a 15-12 record.
Trevor Bauer contributed 6.2 innings of two-run baseball, striking out 11, a season high. He walked three and allowed a home run, but that’s now several consecutive fine starts.
