Joey Cantillo did not deserve this loss. Alas, that is sometimes how the cruel world of baseball works though. Cantillo took the mound Friday night to kick off the last series of the regular season for the Cleveland Guardians. He threw 3.2 innings, allowing 6 hits and walking 2. As Cleveland was getting slammed with the remnants of hurricane Helene, the Guards found themselves struggling quite a bit defensively. Shortstop Daniel Schneemann and second baseman Andrés Giménez both dropping and misplaying the ball which allowed runners to reach. Cantillo threw two wild pitches, one of which scored a run.
