Dodgers beat the Twins on the West Coast, the G's are now in first place by a full game.
In a season they were rebuilding. They've had nine players get their first MLB hit this season.

When I saw that last night I couldn't believe my eyes. Ol' Tito Francona working his magic with about 51 games left.
I don't know if most people realize what's going on here with these young guns ! They started this season -2 years younger than Pittsburgh then KC and the other cellar dwellers. I was hoping that they "might" be in a WC race before fading away late.
Now they're taking a shot at #1 in the AL Central. They are a dangerous late inning ball club leading the MLB in some important stats. A good set up pitching staff, Clase can be "unhittible" at times. Still pieces of a good 1-5 staff. Still lacking in HR hitters -but- doing that 1-9 stuff Tito has wanted all along for these young guns.
Will this club make it to October who really knows.....but I wouldn't put it past them. Jose, Jimenez, Naylor, Gonzalez plus the starters coming around ?
I've only missed 2 of 110 games, 111 at 1:10 pm today. They are a scrappy, tough bunch.
Plesac 2.82 run support third worst in baseball, he's so due. McKenzie is just breaking through, Beiber is Cy Young good, slow start, again low run support, Quantrill (8-5) don't forget about him. there.
And the 9th Guardian player to get 1st MLB hit No not a last place club. It's there for 2023 breaking through in 2022.
GO GUARDIANS, it's there.....

Doubleheader tomorrow vs the Motor City Kitties.
1st place mid-way through August, not bad for a rebuild year.

14th ? You might see that on last place teams dumping talent but not on contenders.....which it may be safe to say that barring a major meltdown the Guardians......uh, are now contenders with 47 to go, and Manager Tito Francona in charge.
Maybe one of his finest managerial jobs of many. Manager of the Year ?

Here's the crazy stat of the year....
Cleveland and Detroit are two of the charter American League franchises, and have been competing against each other since the A.L. started in 1901.
After yesterday's doubleheader, which was split between the Guardians and Tigers, the all-time series stands at:
1143-1143.

Game 117 - Tue Aug 16 - DET (44-74) vs CLE (62-54) first pitch 7:10 pm
G. Hill (5-5?) ERA 4.70. versus Cal Quantrill (9-6?) ERA. 4.49
■~~~~~~>
<~~~~~~■ Started like shootout. Game 3 of 4. Should be interesting.
.... DET 4-1 bottom 3. Baseball is so much different than football, that's for sure.
.... DET 4-3 final. And Tito Francona gets thrown out in the 9th but he got his money's worth.
See you Wednesday at. 7:10 pm for the split. Good night everyone.

I'm surprised there weren't more ejections tonight, the G's were pretty fired up by the end of the 4-3 loss.
If the Guardians don't win the Central, its how mediocre they've been vs a bad Tigers team this year that could be the reason.
