Ben Lively pitched seven innings of two-run ball, and the Cleveland Guardians beat the Los Angeles Angels 5-4 on Sunday for their ninth consecutive win.
It’s the longest win streak for Cleveland since it won an AL-record 22 in a row from Aug. 24 to Sept. 14, 2017. It matched the franchise’s best 53-game start at 36-17, also accomplished in 1920, 1954 and 1995. The team reached the World Series in all three of those seasons, winning in 1920.
“It’s fun. It’s what these guys do. I haven’t done anything,” first-year Cleveland manager Stephen Vogt said. “It’s all about the guys in there. This team, they believe in each other. We play all 13 guys. They all chip in. Coming off the bench, we’ve been getting big hits. The pitching has really stepped up. It’s been a fun week and a half, and we hope to keep it going.”“It’s awesome,” Lively said of the win streak. “Let’s keep it going, see how far we can go. Keep on the same.
Giménez was hit in the head by a Detmers pitch in the third. His helmet came off, and he was checked by an athletic trainer. But he stayed in the game. “This was the first one to my head, and I hope it’s going to be the last one,” said Giménez, who has 32 RBIs on the season. Angels: INF Miguel Sano, who already is on the 10-day IL, left a heat pack on his leg too long and suffered a burn while on a rehab assignment, according to Washington. But it’s not thought to be serious.
