out of here you kidding me with santa's unbelievable 100 miles an hour but when you start to go 92 to 95 you can make it do it miles there you go miles straw yeah thought about going to second base at the short stop he'll throw him out as rosario makes the play we go to the bottom of the ninth inning in cleveland astros will call on ryan presley ninth inning and clement reaches down and hits that one into right field lead off single in the ninth for the indians swinging a miss beat him upstairs in a three-pitch strikeout there's one away in the ninth 6-3 swing and a miss that ryan presley comes in and closes the door it was a three-run game plumber but it felt tighter than that for the final three innings of this contest yeah they had to fight for it a little bit you see on the scoreboard right there that the indians had three more hits than the houston astros they left a ton of base runners on base but it was a lot of good defense some good pitching the bullpen after brooks raleigh did a phenomenal job with stanic and blake taylor had a phenomenal inning battling through some adversity to get out of that and set things up for ryan presley to close this thing out to get his 13th save on the season a really good team game team win astros pitching strands 15 base runners in this one tonight as the astros make it back-to-back wins in cleveland they double up the indians tonight 6-3 as mccullers gets the win back with more
