Cleveland pitcher strikes out 10 Blue Jays to complete four-game sweep Globe_Sports
Toronto Blue Jays' Rowdy Tellez reacts after striking out in the fourth inning of a baseball game against the Cleveland Indians, on Sunday, April 7, 2019, in Cleveland, Ohio.Toronto was no match for Mike Clevinger, who was stopped Sunday only by upper back tightness that forced him from the game after five scoreless innings.
“They made the right call,” Clevinger said. “It’s not worth it right now, this early. It’s just being safe.”He retired his first nine hitters, walked Socrates Brito leading off the fourth, then gave up a double to Freddy Galvis. Clevinger fanned Randal Grichuk, Rowdy Tellez and Teoscar Hernandez in order, all swinging. He threw 75 pitches in all.
Carlos Santana, reacquired during the off-season, had an RBI double in the first and is hitting .419 with a 1.067 OPS. Tyler Naquin had three hits, including a run-scoring single in the first. Jose Ramirez added an RBI double in the fifth. Gonzalez is 4 for 12 in three games at Triple-A Columbus, but manager Terry Francona isn’t concerned with statistics.
