2.) Carlos Carrasco With A Decent Outing
Carlos Carrasco made his first start of the 2018 campaign and earned his first victory of the season.
Carrasco didn’t see as many strikeouts in Saturday’s outing as he did in the 2017 season. During the 2017 season, Carrasco averaged 10.2 strikeouts per nine innings.
In his first start, Carrasco pitched 5.2 innings pitched, gave up 7 hits, allowed 5 earned runs, gave up 2 home runs, and struck out 4 batters.
Cookie improved his record for his first start of the season in his career to 3-4 in 9 starts.

As mentioned by Jensen Lewis, in Carrasco’s last 36 starts if the Indians score four or more runs, he has a record of 34-2…that record now improves to 35-2 in 37 starts after today.
