The offensive ineptitude continues
The Guardians lost again. This time they knocked out 9 hits and left 10 on base.
Jose Ramirez broke his 0 for 21 streak with a first inning homer. He is amazing.

Slade Cecconi was good, giving up two solo home runs and only six hits and two walks, striking out five. Matt Festa pitched two scoreless and newly added Doug Nikhazy pitched a scoreless ninth, striking out two.
Tonight, the offense wasn’t bad. Just inept. Also, unlucky.
Lane Thomas’s plantar fascitis flared up so he may be headed to the IL. I am sure we will get a Jhonkensy Noel call up to replace him. I almost hope for it at this point.
