Indians Fall Flat Again to A’s in 7-2 Setback; Three Takeaways from the Loss

1. Jackson Stays Dominant Against the Indians

Edwin Jackson has pitched for a ton of MLB teams (now 13 to be exact), and with the win over the Tribe on Saturday he improves to 10-1 lifetime against them.

Jackson went 6.2 innings, giving up homers to both Francisco Lindor and Jose Ramirez, but those were the only two hits he allowed in the victory to go to 2-0 on the year.

The A’s veteran righty pitcher hasn’t lost to the Indians since 2008, dating now 10 starts with wins over the Indians. His velocity kept the Indians guessing all day long, and yet again they just didn’t do enough to get guys on base and then try and put a solid inning together.

They get one more shot on Sunday against an A’s team that has outscored the Indians 10-3 in the first two games of the series.
