The Indians jumped right on Chris Archer with a walk and Jason Kipnis homer to lead off the game, and that would have been enough for Trevor Bauer in this game I attended on the day of the Cavaliers championship parade. He went the distance, allowing one run on three hits, one walk, and ten strikeouts. Tampa Bay’s only run came on Corey Dickerson’s two-out infield single in the sixth, on which Logan Morrison overran the bag at third and was tagged for the third out (“OVR65” on the scoresheet).
One of my lasting memories of the day was the inebriated man waiting to get on the rapid after the game, flush with euphoria over the Cavs’ victory, who kept shouting “Indians over the Cubs in seven”. So close yet so far.
