Indians Survive Extra Frames in Arlington, Top Rangers in 11 Innings 9-8; Three Takeaways

1. Whatever it Takes

The Indians put up nine runs on 17 hits, including a huge night for a couple of players in order to get the much-needed win to start the second half 9-8.

The winning run came in the 11th when Edwin Encarnacion, who went 3-for-5 with three runs scored, singled in the winning run to score Jose Ramirez to take the 9-8 lead.

The offense sure wasn’t the issue, as six players on the team had two or more hits in the win, led by new call up Yandy Diaz who had four hits, going 4-for-6 with two RBI.

Jason Kipnis also was on fire in the first game of the second half, going 2-for-5 with his 10th homer of the season and three runs batted in.

It might not have been pretty, but the Tribe will take it.

We have won.

We will take a brief intermission, and begin another game shortly.

Goodnight. ?#RallyTogether pic.twitter.com/ySvcjiwRQp
