Cleveland used its AL-leading 13th shutout of the season yesterday to take two of three from the Orioles. The Indians are 9-4 in rubber games, tied with the Astros for best in MLB (min. 3-game series).

The Red Sox dropped the final game of a three-game series against the Rays, 2-0, but are a Major League-best 13-3 (.813) in August. Boston has a 28-7-5 (.763) series record this season, on pace to be the second highest in franchise history behind 1912, when the team went 30-5-7 (.798).

Mike Clevinger reached the 150-strikeout plateau in Cleveland's win yesterday against Baltimore, becoming Cleveland's fourth pitcher this season to accomplish that, joining Trevor Bauer, Carlos Carrasco, and Corey Kluber. Through 123 team games, the Indians are the fastest team in MLB history to have four pitchers with at least 150 strikeouts in a season.

Over his last four starts, Corey Kluber has compiled a 1.78 ERA and an 0.79 WHIP, while striking out 26 and walking four in 30.1 innings. Since 2013, Kluber has a 2.31 ERA in August, best in the majors over that time (minimum 150 IP in August).

In 22 career starts (11 quality) against Cleveland, Rick Porcello is 10-4 with a 3.35 ERA and a 1.29 WHIP. Porcello has made 11 straight starts against Cleveland without allowing a home run, which is his longest such streak against any team at any point in his career.

Jose Ramirez ranks second in MLB in extra-base hits (71), fourth in intentional walks (14), and tied for fourth in stolen bases (27). Since intentional walks began being tracked officially in 1955, only Willie Mays (1956 -- 1958) and Hank Aaron (1963) have finished top five in MLB in those three categories in a season.

BOSTON -- The Cleveland Indians and the Boston Red Sox are both headed for the postseason for the third straight year and could wind up facing each other for the second time in those three seasons.
First, though, there is the rest of the regular season.

Indians, Red Sox begin four-game series, potential playoff preview

BOSTON (AP)  Boston pitcher Rick Porcello had the wind knocked out of him after taking a hard liner to the stomach. Two pitches later, Cleveland's Greg Allen knocked the energy right out of Fenway Park.
Allen hit a go-ahead home run in the seventh inning right after Porcello was struck, Corey Kluber tied for the major league lead with his 16th win and the Indians beat the Red Sox 5-4 Monday night.
