2. Making Em Count
The offense had a lot of chances, and while they once again had some frustrating moments, they were able to make it count with five runs.
They scored a run in the first after a gift error to start the game from Nomar Mazara which led to Jason Kipnis crossing home, and then two more in the third.
The two in the third were paced by hits each for Michael Brantley and Jose Ramirez. The top four in the Indians order accounted for eight hits, four RBI and scored three times.
They put up two more in the seventh to put the game away, as Brantley again came through with a big base hit, and then Edwin Encarnación hit a single to score the final run of the night.
It was good to see the offense finally break out of the same old leaving guys on base syndrome. While it could have been better, five runs was enough to get past the Rangers on this night.
