DETROIT--The radio voice of the Cleveland Indians Tom Hamilton wondered if it was a Full Moon after the Indians' 8th inning bullpen meltdown where the Tigers scored four go-ahead runs. Detroit Tigers defeat the Cleveland Indians 5-2.
Before the game, Tigers manager Ron Gardenhire stepped down from his position before the game.
After Harold Castro's RBI double in the first, Jose Ramirez put the Tribe up 2-1 with a RBI double.
Indians' starter Triston McKenzie only pitched four innings, allowing six hits and his velocity is becoming a concern.
Fox Sports/WTAM's Jensen Lewis had this to say about McKenzie's velocity:
Indians were up in the 8th inning, but the lack of insurance runs came to bite them (no hits in 4th-6th innings).
Here's what Indians Acting Manager Sandy Alomar had to say about tonight's game.
