The Indians hosted the L.A. Dodgers at Bird Park looking to avenge a 6-1 pasting they took on the road last week. The game did not start well for Tri-City as the Dodgers plated an unearned run in the top of the 1st on a throwing error. However the Indians bounced back with 4 runs in the bottom of 3 to give SP Alan Selman a 4-1 lead. Aaron Sinclaire led off and was hit by a pitch. Then with a 1-1 count, Jacob Simms had a great at bat fouling off several pitches before lining a single to left scoring Sinclaire to tie the game. Kyle Stubbins then singled and was followed by RBI singles from Colton Rieta (1) and Jordan Dray (2). L.A. got one back when Alan hit the lead-off batter and then reliever Jacob Doyle did the same. After 4 the Indians led 4-2. In the top of 5, the visitors tied the game off Doyle following a lead-off walk and 2 singles. Jordan Dray came in to relieve Doyle and closed out the inning and looked sharp thereafter. Then in the bottom of 5, with 2 outs, Jordan hit a hard shot that the Dodger shortstop couldn't handle. Then 3 pitches later with Jordan off and running, Alan came up with another clutch single scoring Jordan all the way from 1st. That gave the Indians a 4-3 lead after 5 and Jordan set down the Dodger hitters in order in the 5th and 6th with 5 K's to seal the hard fought 5-4 victory over a very tough Dodgers team. Next up the Indians travel to Victoria for a 3 game weekend just 1/2 game out of top spot.
