It was that kind of night for the Indians.

The Indians (83-61) have now dropped two game out of the four-game series. Chicago scored in every inning for the first time since a 12-8 victory over the Boston Red Sox on May 11, 1949, according to STATS. “Offense and defense both weren’t going at the same time”.
Padres 3, Giants 1: Madison Bumgarner missed a chance at his milestone 100th career win and San Francisco wasted another chance for a potential push in the NL West, losing to San Diego to be swept by the division’s second-to-last-place club. Clevinger was tagged for six runs over five innings while losing a start at Chicago on May 23 before giving up a run in four frames during a relief outing versus the White Sox on August 18.Shields’ winless streak reached eight starts on Saturday as he did not factor in the decision against Kansas City after yielding three runs on four hits and four walks in six innings.
“Those guys came in very aggressive and hit everything”, Carrasco said. The right-hander recently returned from Tommy John surgery.
Indians manager Terry Francona spoke on Tomlin’s upcoming performance: “Hopefully the time down has, not just physically but mentally, given him a chance to think about things”. Six of the next seven and seven of the next nine Chicago batters got hits, chasing Bauer and Dan Otero from the game before Joe Colon finally recorded the third out. Adam Eaton went 1-for-4 with an RBI triple for the White Sox, and Melky Cabrera had half of Chicago’s six hits.
Jose Ramirez had two hits, including a triple that drove in two runs in a three-run third inning, and scored two runs.
“When he first started out, it was coming out of his hand great”, White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. “All the way through the lineup everybody seemed to be clicking”. Shields’ last outing was one of the more pleasant ones in recent memory – he lasted six innings and gave up only three earned runs (and two homers).
Indians: Guyer (sore knee) was struck by a pitch in the fourth and removed from the blowout three innings later. It also looked as if something was bothering Abreu after a hard slide back into first in the fifth, but he stayed in the game.
“I feel like I didn’t deserve to have that happen”, Bauer said.
Indians RHP Trevor Bauer and White Sox LHP Jose Quintana get the ball Tuesday night. He walked one and struck out six in his longest appearance since June 11.
