Tampa got
just four hits through 14 innings and used eight pitchers, including Corey
Kluber, who made his first relief appearance in more than nine years.
Cleveland
had four hits and also used eight pitchers. It was the longest postseason game
in the team’s history.
There were
36 strikeouts through 14 innings.
