Justin Wilson pitched three innings before leaving the game due a minor injury, he gave up one hit and struck out one in those innings. Rick VandenHurk did a great job in relief pitching five scoreless innings before Doug Slaten closed out the 1-0 win. Quite a game for the Indians pitching staff. The only run of the day was scored by Gorkys Hernandez who was driven in by Matt Hague. Starling Marte was back in the lineup and made a couple of stellar plays in the outfield despite being 0/3 at the plate.
