LAST NIGHT: The Indians fell behind 9-0 after two innings of play and couldn't recover in a 9-1 loss to the Clippers on Friday night. Eduardo Vera was on the wrong end of the outcome as Columbus tagged him with nine earned runs on nine hits in 1.2 innings of work. Vera's counterpart Michael Peoples stymied the Tribe bats over 6.0 innings pitched to just one run on five hits and two walks with seven punchouts. Indy's bullpen quartet of Yefry Ramirez, Geoff Hartlieb, Tyler Lyons and JB Shuck combined for 6.1 shutout innings, but a Cole Tucker RBI groundout that scored Jake Elmore in the fifth was all the Tribe offense could muster.

SHORT MEMORY: Last night's 9-1 loss matched the largest margin of defeat for Indy this season, with the most recent eight-run loss coming in Game 2 of a doubleheader on June 16 vs. Pawtucket, an 8-0 setback. Indy has now been beaten by eight runs five times and are just 17-24 in games decided by three or more runs. The eight-run loss was the largest in Indy's head-to-head series with Columbus since an 8-0 loss on April 28, 2018 at Huntington Park.

15 HITS: The Tribe pitching staff surrendered 15 hits in the Friday night defeat, marking the fourth time they've given up 15 or more hits in a game this year. Indy is 0-4 in those contests. The first came on May 25 at Columbus in a 15-9 loss. The second and third occurrences happened in consecutive games vs. Buffalo on June 12-13, when Indy yielded 16 and 15 knocks in back-to-back lopsided losses (14-6, 11-3).

YOU GOTTA SCORE: The Indians tallied just one run last night and fell to 2-22 when scoring two runs or less this season. During their 11-22 stretch dating back to June 7, the Indians have scored a league-low 110 runs (3.33 RPG) on 239 hits (7.24 HPG). Since June 7, the Indians are at the bottom of the league in homers with 18, 12 behind Norfolk who is 13th with 30. Columbus, meanwhile, has belted a league-high 57 home runs since that date.

MARVEL-OUS: RHP James Marvel gets the nod tonight for Indy for his second career Triple-A start. Marvel, selected by the Pirates in the 36th round of the 2015 First-Year Player Draft out of Duke University, made a strong first impression for Indy with a complete-game shutout in Game 2 of the July 5 twin bill against Toledo (7.0ip, 3h, 0r, 0bb, 6k). His CGSHO was the first by a Tribe pitcher since Adam Wilk on July 6, 2014 vs. Lehigh Valley (9.0ip, 5h, 0r, 1bb, 4k). It was the first CGSHO thrown by a Tribe starter in a doubleheader since Ian Snell on July 5, 2009 vs. Louisville (7.0ip, 5h, 0r, 1bb, 6k).

TWO HITS FOR HAYES, REYES: Ke'Bryan Hayes and Pablo Reyes each went 2-for-4 with a pair of singles in last night's setback. The multi-hit performance was the 15th of the season for Hayes with Indy, but the Tribe are just 8-7 when he has two or more knocks. It also marked Reyes' ninth multi-hit showing for the Tribe this year, but the Indians fell to 4-5 when he has two-plus hits.
