The Indians' Weekend from Hell is complete.

This quote from Zack Meisel of The Athletics is as accurate as anything else we could say. The Cleveland Indians came into today’s game against the New York Yankees as a team that could really use a win. After dropping their last two, the Tribe had won just four of their last ten, and a loss today would leave them at just 17-17, albeit still atop the American League Central Division. Meanwhile, the Yankees had been red-hot over the last few weeks, winning 14 of 15 games to sit just one game behind the Boston Red Sox for the best record in baseball.
