The Cleveland Baseball Club completed the four game sweep fo the Baltimore Orioles Thursday afternoon at Progressive Field.

Dingers, dingers, and more dingers. That is the theme of the Cleveland Baseball Club’s 10-3 win over the Baltimore Orioles Thursday. Fresh off their third straight win over the visiting Orioles from the night before, Cleveland put a wallop on Baltimore and hammered three long balls in the contest.

Jose Ramirez got things started for Cleveland with a two-run homer in the bottom of the 1st.

Bobby Bradley would continue his impressive run since being called up with a solo shot to give Cleveland a 3-0 lead.

Eddie Rosario came up to the plate in the 4th with a 3-1 score and added another to Cleveland’s total.

It was just a few innings later that Yu Chang would clobber a two-run blast to give Cleveland a commanding 9-3 lead.

Jose Ramirez would later add the 10th and final run for Cleveland on a RBI groundout.

This was exactly the type of performance at the plate that Cleveland needed with the all hands on deck pitching approach taken on Thursday. Eli Morgan was the starter, but lasted just 3.2 innings. Morgan allowed three runs on five hits while striking out five.

Kyle Nelson (2) and Sam Hentges (1) were the only other pitchers to allow hits in the contest. Trevor Stephan, Phil Maton, and Nick Wittgren combined to 3.2 innings and four strikeouts without allowing a baserunner.

With the home stand now over, Cleveland heads on the road for a three game series with the Pittsburgh Pirates starting Friday.

Cleveland wins third straight against Baltimore 8-7

The Cleveland Baseball Club used another five run inning to defeat the Baltimore Orioles 8-7.

Baseball can be funny sometimes as things seem to repeat themselves. Wednesday’s game between the Cleveland Baseball Club and Baltimore Orioles certainly gave everyone an intense feeling of deja vu. This is due to Cleveland using another five run inning to get out to a big lead and win the game.

This time it was the 3rd inning that saw Cleveland scoring a bunch of runs. Down 3-1, RBI hits from Amed Rosario, Jose Ramirez, Harold Ramirez, and Eddie Rosario had Cleveland jump out to a 6-3 lead. The hit from Jose Ramirez was the most entertaining as he avoided being tagged out between first and second, managing to make his way to a vacant third base when it was all said and done.

Aaron Civale was on the mound against Baltimore and while he did manage to go 5 innings, it wasn’t easy. The Orioles collected five runs on nine hits and really shortened Civale’s outing. Due to the hits that Baltimore got off Civale and his early high pitch count, Cleveland was lucky to get five innings out of him.

Bryan Shaw was the only other pitcher that the Orioles were able to do anything against. Shaw allowed two runs on three hits in just one inning. James Karinchak and Emmanuel Clase did their usual things in the 9th, shutting the door and striking out a batter each.

Cleveland has a chance to complete the four game sweep Thursday at 1:10 P.M.
