Joey Cantillo was in firm control in Game 2 to help lead the Guardians to a 6-1 victory on Saturday. Cantillo only gave up one hit and one run in six innings, while striking out seven to improve to 9-7 in the season. Cleveland used three other relievers for the last three innings and didn’t give up another hit. San Diego actually scored the first run of the game when Manny Machado grounded out into a double play, but drove in C.J. Croneworth in the process. Cantillo settled down tremendously after that to help combine for the one-hitter. The win was actually Cleveland’s 10,000th in franchise history. They became just the third franchise in the American League to accomplish the feat, after the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox.
