Indians starter Corey Kluber tied a career high with 10 strikeouts Sunday at home against the Detroit Tigers. Unfortunately, his bullpen couldn't hold his lead and he had to settle for a no-decision on the start.
The Cleveland starting pitcher remained at 6-5 on the season with a 4.23 ERA as he allowed two earned runs on five hits and three walks over 6 1/3 innings in a quality start. He was hurt in the first inning by a Miguel Cabrera solo homer but was able to regroup after that and mow down the Detroit batters. He threw 109 pitches in the game.
The 27-year-old Kluber has won three of his last five decisions spanning six starts, but rebounded nicely Sunday after he'd given up 10 runs over his last two outings spanning 10 innings. Over his last 11 outings, he has a 3.74 ERA to go along with 66 strikeouts and just 13 walks over 65 innings. Kluber was fantastic Sunday and will look to keep rolling when he next starts Friday against Kansas City.
