The Guardians beat the Rangers 2-1 behind a game-tying RBI bloop hit from Tyler Freeman, who had entered the game to replace Jose Tena at shortstop, and a go-ahead RBI opposite field single from Steven Kwan. Just like that, the 2022 Guardians are back! Enyel De Los Santos, Sam Hentges, Reynaldo Lopez and Emmanuel Clase were dominant in relief of Tanner Bibee who pitched 5 and 1⁄3 good innings...
“Why only 5 and 1⁄3?” you ask? Well, Tanner Bibee hurt his hip on a play in the fourth inning at first base and told the team.
