Pitching Staff Continues to Put Up Staggering Numbers
As wild as it is that the Indians pitching staff has been this good for this long of a stretch, here are some numbers to consider over the past few days here at Progressive Field and from last week at Yankee Stadium:
Tonight vs the A’s was the Indians 6th shutout of the season
The Tribe has now recorded shutouts in three of their last four games, and four of their last seven
The starters have a scoress innings streak at 34 innings, dating back to the 5th inning of Friday’s game vs Toronto
The Indians have allowed just one run in their last 39 innings overall
Who needs an offense when the pitching staff is doing this?
Matt has covered Major League Baseball and the "other two" Pro teams in Cleveland since 1994. He has been on the beat of the Indians in full-time mode since 1996, working for various raido and print networks around the country.
