 On September 7, the Indians were tied with the White Sox for the AL Central lead at 26-15. Since then, they have lost eight straight games and now sit just 4.0 games ahead of the Mariners and Orioles for the second AL Wild Card spot. Cleveland hasn't lost nine straight games since the 2012 season.

 After winning eight of 10 from August 21-September 1, the Tigers have dropped 11 of their last 15, allowing 6.3 runs per game. They have been shut out three times in their last eight games and six times overall this season, tied with the Reds for most in baseball.

 The Indians had won 20 straight games against the Tigers before losing two of three in Cleveland from August 21-23. That was the first series win for the Tigers over the Indians since September 14-16, 2018.

 Franmil Reyes is hitting just .119 in his last 12 games, going hitless in eight of them. However, he could break out against Detroit: in 10 career games against the Tigers, Reyes is slashing .353/.500/.912 with six home runs and 12 RBI.

 In Detroit's last 25 games dating back to August 21, Jeimer Candelario is hitting .386 and Willi Castro is hitting .378. Those are the top two batting averages in the AL in that span (minimum 75 PA).

 Shane Bieber leads MLB in both ERA (1.53) and strikeouts (102) this season. He could become the first Indians player to lead all of MLB in both categories and the first pitcher to do so since San Diego's Jake Peavy in 2007. Bieber owns a 1.82 ERA in five career starts against the Tigers.

HP - Diaz, 1B - Blakney, 2B - Reyburn, 3B - Timmons

After getting their first taste of victory in 10 days, the Cleveland Indians will try to start a winning streak as their four-game series at Detroit continues through the weekend.
The Indians snapped an eight-game losing streak with a 10-3 victory in the series opener on Thursday.

Indians try to repeat breakout game at Tigers

DETROIT (AP)  Zach Plesac pitched impressively into the eighth inning, and Brad Hand worked out of a jam in the ninth to send the Cleveland Indians to a 1-0 victory over the Detroit Tigers on Friday night.
Francisco Lindor drove in the game's only run with a fifth-inning sacrifice fly, and Plesac (4-2) rebounded after allowing a season-high five runs at Minnesota in his previous outing. The right-hander yielded five hits in 7 2/3 innings, lowering his ERA to 1.85. He struck out 11 with one walk.
