Indians Start the Second Half with a Whimper in 5-0 Shutout Loss to A’s; Three Takeaways From the Loss

2. No Help for Carrasco

Indians starter Carlos Carrasco struck out 10 in his first outing out of the break, but allowed five runs over 6.1 innings and walked two in the loss.

It was his first career loss in five starts against the A’s, and even if he would have been as good as at points this season, it wouldn’t have mattered considering the offense didn’t give him any help.

The A’s scored a pair in the 3rd and then hit two solo homers in the 5th to put them up 4-0, and the way the Indians offense was not producing, a four-run lead at the time for Oakland might as well have been 100.

Carrasco falls to 10-4 on the season, with an ERA of 3.65.
