Indians Crown Royals again 8-5

When the Royals broke out with four runs in the top of the fifth, it appeared the game might be out of reach, but the Indians had a five run eighth, coming back from a 5-3 deficit to win 8-5 Wednesday night at Progressive Field in Cleveland, Ohio. Zach Jackson made his second start for the Indians, and just like the first time, he came away with a no-decision. Jackson gave the Tribe seven innings, giving up five runs, four of them earned, while surrendering seven hits; most of those coming in the first and fifth innings. In the first, he allowed three hits, but got out of the inning unscathed via the double play ball after the Royals loaded the bases. Mike Aviles, Esteban German, and David DeJesus all singled, bringing up Jose Guillen with nobody out. Guillen sac-flied in Aviles for the first run and out of the game.   German moved up to third, putting runners at the corners with one out. Billy Butler saved Jackson’s bacon by grounding to Asdrubal Cabrera, who flipped to Jhonny Peralta ... (link)
