Cleveland drops third straight game in Toronto

The Cleveland Baseball Club lost their third consecutive game to the Toronto Blue Jays as they were shutout in a 3-0 loss.

The trip north of the border did not go well for the Cleveland Baseball Club as they lost their third straight game, this time a 3-0 loss. Cleveland managed just three hits in in the contest off of Ross Stripling. Stripling has not had a great season and this could have been an opportunity for Cleveland to put up some big numbers, but they collectively failed to score a run.

Amed Rosario (1-3), Franmil Reyes (1-3), and Owen Miller (1-3) were the only Cleveland batters to register a hit. Rosario and Reyes also reached via base on balls in the contest. Bradley Zimmer, Myles Straw, Bobby Bradley, Harold Ramirez, Oscar Mercado, Austin Hedges, Ernie Clement combined to go 0-22 with six strikeouts.

Triston McKenzie started the game for Cleveland, allowing three runs on five hits while walking four over 7 innings. McKenzie allowed all three runs with Bo Bichette in the plate. Bichette would hit a two-run homer in the 4th and drive in another run with a RBI single in the 6th.

Bryan Shaw would work clean 8th inning, recording all three outs on 15 pitches.

Cleveland returns home to take on the Detroit Tigers Friday night. It has been six losses their last 10 games for Cleveland while Detroit has six wins over that same span.
