Indians managed a 12-3 win in the first game, as Carlos Carrasco was impressive with his pitching. He had six strike-outs with an ERA of 5.68 in the Indians convincing victory. Indians’ manager, Manny Acta was excited after this impressive win and said,
“Carrasco basically set the tone for us. He threw some zeros out there and gave us an opportunity to come up in the fourth inning and do what we did.”
On the other side, Mariners’ batters got only three runs in the whole game. Jason Vargas pitched well for the Mariners but that was not enough to earn a win for his team. He was able to strike-out only one batter on his 63 pitches and permitted nine hits
with seven earned runs.
