The switch-hitting shortstop’s highlight-reel moments have become a daily occurrence for his teammates. Lindor’s triple tied the game before Napoli scored the game victor. “He was really good tonight”. Orlando attempted a diving catch, but the ball rolled the wall. Martinez scored easily and Lindor slid headfirst into third base with a triple, becoming the potential game-winning run. Napoli moved to third on Jose Ramirez’s single and scored when Volquez threw his second wild pitch of the game.

Naquin, 25, is in the midst of his second promotion with the Indians this season. Hunter Strickland and Chris Stratton followed with hitless relief. The Buckeyes will next face Louisville, a 6-1 victor against Western Michigan, at 4 p.m. today. I love it when a pitcher makes a good pitch to get the guy out and I help him to make the play. The night represented his worst performance since surrendering five runs in a loss here in Cleveland on May 8. Greinke (7-3), the 2009 victor with Kansas City, allowed a season-low four hits – all singles – over seven innings and walked none.
