The Guardians somehow found a way to beat the Blue Jays 6-5 on Sunday, ending a homestand on a five-game winning streak.
Triston McKenzie was frustrating again, tantalizing fans with a 95 mph fastball and a great curve but little command, walking four and serving up meatballs periodically resulting in two home runs before rain came in, delaying the game. He has mechanical adjustments to make, but the promise is still there as evidenced by his six strikeouts yesterday.
The Guardians had loaded the bases with no outs against popular trade target, Yusei Kikuchi, as the rain began to fall, eventually scoring three runs on a Daniel Schneemann single, a Johnathan Rodriguez walk, and a Brayan Rocchio double-play ball.
