The Cleveland Indians scored seven runs on Tuesday night but the bad news was that the Texas Rangers actually scored 12 runs. The Indians made things interesting in the seventh and eighth innings but then the Rangers answered back with three runs of their own in the eighth inning.
Tom Mastny was absolutely rocked as he only lasted 1 1/3 innings as he gave up six hits and five runs. Mastny gave up two home runs in the game as he pitcher terribly.
The Indians bullpen wasn’t much better however. Jensen Lewis, Edward Mujica, and Rafael Perez, all gave up two runs each in the game. Scott Elarton also gave up one run. Just a bad performance by everyone that pitched for the Indians.
Shin-Soo Choo had a two run double in the seventh inning and then a solo home run in the ninth inning to lead the Indians with three rbi at the plate. Ben Francisco, Ryan Garko, and Jhonny Peralta all helped out with one rbi each but it wasn’t enough for the Indians.
