7 - 2 - 10 vs. Oakland L, 3 - 0 31 - 48
Mitch Talbot started the Indians' five - game winning steak with a brilliant outing in Cincinnati, but he could not keep it alive against the A's. Due to a rising pitch count, Talbot was only able to last 5 1/3 innings, and in that time he allowed three runs. That was three too many for the Tribe's offense which failed to even put a single tally on the board.
Oakland posted the only run they would need in the 1st as Jack Cust drew a bases loaded walk. The Athletics then sent Talbot to the showers on Mark Ellis's two - run double in the 6th.
Cleveland only put together one legitimate rally, and that came in the bottom of the 6th. The bases were loaded with two outs when Mike Redmond grounded out to the right fielder. And no, that is not a misprint. Ryan Sweeney was somehow able to gun down Redmond at first base from his position way out in right field. That about summed up this night for the Indians.
