Cleveland Indians Smashed Baltimore Orioles

baseball fieldCorey Kluber closed a game for The Cleveland Indians and inspired the team to record an astonishing 12 – 0 victory as a guest to The Baltimore Orioles in the regular season of the MLB. The Pitcher made a three-hitter and eliminated 11 strikes, achieving his fifth victory at zero in his Premier League career. Jason Kipnis and Carlos Santana hit home runs and The Indians won their sixth consecutive victory in the league and extended their best series in 2017.

Kluber (W 6-2) did not give any base and only allowed three singles of Adam Jones in the 1st inning, Seth Smith in the 6th and Hyun-soo Kim in the 8th. Moreover, the 31-year-old right-hander threw 3 strikeouts in the 9th to seal his 12th full-scale match and his second shoot-out this year.

“Evenings like this are rare, but they are a real joy because you can give a full break to your bullpen, which gives you extra confidence,” Cleveland manager Terry Francona said. He was forced to use a total of 15 pitchers in the four games played for three days against Minnesota Twins from Friday to Sunday.

“The goal is to try to finish the game every time,” said Kluber after the game. “We played a lot of baseball on the weekend and the guys from the bullpen covered a lot of innings, so I suppose that’s an extra bonus for them.”

In the attack, the Indians broke out within three innings in the middle of the match when the visitors scored 11 points in total. In the 4th inning, Edwin Encarnacion, Lonnie Chisenhall and Austin Jackson hit double hits.

“I did not do anything, I just fought to get into control, I was trying to make outs and I could not locate the zone,” complained Baltimore Orioles’ starter Dylan Bundy (L 7-6) after he allowed 6 points of 6 hits and 3 bases after 4 innings.

Baseball | Mr. Met Went Crazy

baseball fieldThe New York Mets lost their last game 1 – 7 to The Milwaukee Brewers, but the baseball match will be remembered mostly for the gestures Mr. Met made to some of the fans. The club has already made their public excuses after the unacceptable behaviour of the club mascot. Minutes after the 1 – 7 loss from the regular season in the baseball league, a video appeared in one of the social networks, in which the creature Mr. Met is showing his middle fingers to some of the fans in the head tunnel of the stadium.

Actually, Mr. Met has no middle fingers, because the gloves in the suit have only four fingers – a thumb and three more. And even though he has no middle finger the message was clear. There is still no clarity what made Mr. Met act like that, but the author of the video claims that the fans just went to him for “Give Me Five”.

“We apologize for the actions of our employee, we do not tolerate this behaviour and we will solve the problem with an internal punishment,” was the official statement of the Citizens. Later the club pointed out that the suit was worn by more than one person during the campaign. However, the man, who wore it on Wednesday has been officially fired.

Let’s take a look at the baseball field, where the pitcher of The New York Mets – Jacob deGrom was very ineffective. He let 8 hits and 7 points for only 4 innings. Eric Thames and Keon Broxton hit homeruns for The Milwaukee Brewers, respectively double in the first and a single in the second. In the fourth Aguilar scored one point with a double hit.

Manny Pina recorded a RBI for 7 – 0. The pitcher Junior Guerra recorded 4 strikeouts, 4 hits and 3 bases in the last inning of the game.
