TRIBE NOTES

STAFF LOOKING GOOD: Through six games, Tribe pitchers have collected a 3.21 ERA (20 ER in 56.0 IP), the fourth-best mark in the International League. The rotation owns a 3.46 ERA in 28.1 innings, while the bullpen has a collective 2.93 ERA in 27.2 innings of work.

MAX-TRA BASES: Max Moroff is currently tied for the IL lead in extra-base hits with five. He has racked up two doubles and three home runs so far this season. Charlotte’s Danny Hayes also has tallied five extra-base knocks.

BACK-TO-BACK SHUTTIES: The Indians were shut out again last night, marking the first time since June 24-25, 2016, when Buffalo blanked Indy 1-0 and 4-0 in consecutive games at Victory Field. Indianapolis has not been held scoreless in at least three consecutive games since May 15-18, 2012, when they were shut out in all four games of a series at Lehigh Valley.
