Tanner Bibee was dominant in the first game these two played since a great ALDS last season. The righty improved to 4-4 on the season going seven scoreless innings while only giving up three hits and striking out eight. Detroit was held to just five hits the whole game. Carlos Santana had a two-run double in the fourth inning for all the run support the Guardians would need. The Guardians scored four more runs in the ninth to add more than enough cushion. Jack Flaherty didn’t pitch poorly at all but still got the loss with no run support going 6.2 innings while giving up three runs on three hits while striking out eight to fall to 2-6 in his second stint for Detroit.

The Tigers try to bounce back with Jackson Jobe as he tries to stay undefeated with a 4-0 record and a 4.12 ERA. Cleveland will counter with Slade Cecconi, who is looking for his first win of the season in just his second start of the year with a 0-1 record and a 5.40 ERA. This is the right-hander’s first year in Cleveland after pitching the first two seasons of his career in Arizona. Cecconi was part of a trade to the Diamondbacks for Josh Naylor.
