Indians Enter All-Star Break 47-40, Fall to Tigers 5-3; Three Takeaways From the Loss

3. Chances Were There

The Indians offense did little to inspire over the first six innings, putting up a single run, but finally Jose Ramirez made his presence felt with a two-run homer to make it a 5-3 game in the 7th.

The team had two great chances to draw even closer or take the lead in those two innings, as they had two on with no outs, but two K’s sandwiched with a Fielder’s Choice ended that threat.

The Tribe came back to get back to back walks with one out, and then load the bases with two outs for Carlos Santana, who grounded out to third after falling behind in the count.

The game very much could have went the way of the Indians with a big hit, but it was not meant to be as the team fell in what turned out to be a hard fought effort.
