OAKLAND -- The Cleveland Guardians are proving to be a resilient group so far and are learning how to pile up the close wins no matter what it looks like. Four of their five victories this season have come by two or fewer runs —three in extra innings.Andrés Giménez scored on pinch-hitter Will Brennan's groundout for the go-ahead run in the 10th inning, Steven Kwan followed with an RBI single and the Guardians held off the Oakland Athletics 6-4 on Wednesday.
Giménez began the inning at second base and Myles Straw drew a walk against Zach Jackson . After Giménez advanced to third on a wild pitch, Brennan lined a 3-2 pitch to shortstop Nick Allen, who threw to first for the out as Giménez crossed home plate. Ryan Noda's first career home run off Nick Sandlin started the A's comeback in the eighth. Following back-to-back walks to Tony Kemp and Aledmys Diaz, Aguilar crushed a three-run homer off Tim Herrin that tied it at 4.
Before the Cleveland bullpen melted down, the Guardians had received strong pitching from starter Hunter Gaddis. A late addition to Cleveland's rotation after an injury to Triston McKenzie in his final spring start, Gaddis pitched one-hit ball over six innings and lowered his ERA from 9.82 to 3.72.
