3. A Sad State at the Plate
Just like Tuesday, it was another night of making Padres pitching look lights out, as they managed a lot more hits on Wednesday, but just two runs to show for it.
The Tribe put up 14 hits, but again couldn’t come through with the key hit, and ended up leaving nine men on base, and Jose Ramirez for the second straight night was thrown out at home plate.
The Indians failed to draw a walk, and struck out nine times, not helping matters when it came to coming up in clutch situations trying to get runs home.
Edwin Encarnacion K’d twice, as did Roberto Perez, who was pulled for a pinch-hitter – Jason Kipnis – who promptly struck out.
The team continues to have poor at bats all over the place at home, and Wednesday was just the latest example of that in the loss.
