Pen Meltdown Spells Sweep for Indians as Yankees Walk-Off Tops Tribe 7-4; Three Takeaways From the Loss

Sunday the awful weekend came to a close with a game that looked like it would be decided by the first run that crossed the plate. The Tribe put up four such runs, but yet another disaster by the pen was their undoing as the Yankees rallied for a 7-4 walk-off 9th inning win.

The loss puts the Indians at 17-17 on the season, and they have lost three of their last four games, including one of the two from their double header on Thursday.

Here’s three takeaways from this latest tough setback.
