The Cleveland Indians lost to the New York Yankees 5-2 on Monday night as they dropped their season record to 12-14. Aaron Laffey had a no hitter going into the sixth inning but that is when everything came undone for him and the Indians.
Laffey ended up taking the loss as he gave up four runs on only three hits in 5.2 innings. One bad inning was all it took for Laffey to pick up the loss and lose the game for the Indians. Jensen Lewis tossed two innings in relief and gave up one earned run. Jorge Julio pitched the final 1.1 innings to finish out the game.
Travis Hafner and Jason Michaels both had an RBI for the Indians. Both runs came in the fifth inning for the Indians. You can’t expect to the beat the Yankees when you can only put two runs on the scoreboard. The offense should have had a better output then what they showed on Monday night.
