Pirates Pound Kluber and Indians in Rain-Shortened Affair 7-0; Three Takeaways

2. What Happened to the Offense?

The last two days have been days to forget for the Indians offense, as they haven’t scored a run since putting up 16 runs in the win over Texas on Saturday night.

Monday it was Trevor Williams shutting down the Indians, as he used his changeup and breaking pitches to make quick work of the Tribe’s offense.

The Indians offense managed just four hits, as Willilams was credited with his first career complete game and shutout.

The Tribe did load the bases in the 6th inning with one out in what ended up being the last inning of the night, and Yonder Alonso struck out and Mekly Cabrera grounded out to end the game.

The Indians also failed to record an extra-base hit and were shut out for the fifth time this season. While it was good to get a pair to start the second half in Texas, they overall have dropped 8 of 13.
