Indians Offense Erupts for 10 Runs, Three Takeaways from 10-1 Victory

1.) Trevor Bauer Tunes Up Before Postseason

Trevor Bauer came into Friday night’s game with 189 strikeouts and only needed 11 more to reach 200 strikeouts on the season. If Bauer would have reached two strikeouts he would have joined teammates Corey Kluber and Carlos Carrasco with 200 or more strikeouts this season.

Bauer only put in 6 innings of work , gave up 4 hits, allowed 1 earned run, walked none, and struck out 7 White Sox batters. Bauer only threw 80 pitches in this start.

Bauer finished with 196 strikeouts which is a career high for him and also earned another career high with his 17th victory of the season.

This was Bauer’s 22nd start of the season with at least 6 strikeouts, which makes him tied 5th in the American League.

Bauer went 10-2 with a 3.01 ERA (28ER/83.2IP) over 14 starts in the second-half and 15 appearances.

Although Bauer, Carrasco , and Kluber did not reach 200 strikeouts or more as a trio, they did make MLB history.

Bauer, Carrasco, and Kluber will each finish their regular-season with at least 17 wins and 190 strikeouts, this makes them the first trio of teammates in MLB history to reach this milestone.
