With game three of the ALDS set to begin this afternoon, the Indians may be staring their last game of 2018 in the face.
After a lifeless regular season with the division in hand from Opening Day, no one wants the Indians’ postseason to end like this, in the first round for the second consecutive season.
They’ve dropped the first two games of the series mostly thanks to an offense that mustered just six hits and struck out 24 times. Jose Ramirez did manage a weak ground out to net himself a run batted in the opening game, but the only real offensive spark has been Francisco Lindor’s home run to open the scoring in game two.
