With their playoff spot all but locked down, this series meant nothing to the Guardians besides staying healthy and getting some reps in. Essentially they were just playing because they had nothing else to do on a Thursday night. They still won the game last night (and series), 2-1. While they trailed most of the game thanks to a Rays first-inning RBI single, Will Brennan kicked off the comeback bid in the eighth with a lead-off single of his own — needless to say, he deserves a playoff roster spot.
