N&N: Carlos Carrasco returns after Leukemia diagnosis

Here’s to a great week!

Rays 8, Indians 2

Rough series for the Tribe. Adam Plutko labored some and the offense struggled. With the loss, the Indians are now 79-58 on the season.

From Mandy Bell:

The buzz began on Sunday long before the loudspeakers at Tropicana Field announced that Carlos Carrasco was up and warming in the seventh inning. It grew steadily during the seventh-inning stretch and erupted in a standing ovation from the crowd and chants of, “Coo-kie! Coo-kie!” as the right-hander jogged in from the bullpen.

Then Carrasco toed the rubber, took a deep breath and fired a strike right down the pipe.
