To paraphrase
Pulp Fiction's
Winston Wolfe,
"Let's not start polishing up the Duck Boats quite yet." In a rude shock to the 'invulnerability' of the
2017 Carmine Hose, the Indians
laid a haymaker on the AL East division leader, 7-3.
Edwin Encarnacion went yard
twice with two-run shots and
Trevor Bauer struck out 11 in just 6.2 innings.
Doug Fister was the guy we thought we were getting: five runs over 4.1 innings in a miserable outing. Lost in the loss were
two more HRs by new phenom
Rafael Devers and another majestic shot by
Andrew Benintendi. No matter, a loss is a loss—and now the division lead is down to 4.5 games.
