CLEVELAND, OHIO - AUGUST 07: Starting pitcher Cristian Javier #53 of the Houston Astros pitches to Steven Kwan #38 of the Cleveland Guardians during the first inning at Progressive Field on August 07, 2022 in Cleveland, Ohio. – Triston McKenzie held Houston to two hits and struck out eight in eight innings, Luke Maile homered for the first time in three years and the Cleveland Guardians defeated the Houston Astros 1-0 on Sunday.
“He had no margin for error today, and fortunately he didn’t make any,” Cleveland manager Terry Francona said. “I wasn’t really looking for anything in particular,” Maile said. “He got me 0-2 pretty quick and then there was a fastball up that I checked my swing on. I thought if anything he might have sped me up a little bit, so I had to focus on getting started just a little earlier.”Emmanuel Clase struck out two of the three hitters he faced in the ninth for his 24th save in 26 opportunities.
“He’s in good spirits,” Espada said. “He’s feeling a lot better. Hopefully he gets to travel back to Houston sometime this week.”The Astros have their first day off Monday since the All-Star break after a stretch of 19 consecutive games.
