The Indians went 0-for-7 with the bases loaded and left 18 men on base but thanks to plenty of erratic pitching, somehow came away with a 5-3 win against the Cincinnati Reds in 11 innings Sunday at Great American Ball Park.
The Indians loaded the bases on five different occasions and never came away with a hit but did manage to score four runs, as Reds pitchers (Johnny Cueto twice, Manny Parra, Pedro Villarreal) all walked in a run.
The Indians held a 3-1 lead—thanks to the first three runs via a walk—until the Reds chipped away, scoring a run in the eighth and ninth innings (Cody Allen attempted a four-out save) to force extra innings.
