From the Notes

ABOUT LAST NIGHT: Jacob Stallings and Pablo Reyes combined for three two-out RBI singles, Mitch Keller struck out six over 6.0 innings of one-run ball and the Indians swept the IronPigs with a 3-1 victory on Thursday. The Tribe never trailed in the series and grabbed a 1-0 lead in the first inning of the finale, as Stallings' first run-scoring single to left brought home Jason Martin, who had singled and stolen second base to set up the RBI. Zach Green evened the score in the second with an RBI double off the wall in right-center, but Keller settled in and delivered his first quality start in a Tribe uniform (6.0ip, 4h, 1r/er, 1bb, 6k). Reyes put the Indians on top for good with a single in the sixth that scored Kevin Newman, and Newman again crossed home in the eighth on another clutch hit by Stallings. Alex McRae (0.2ip, 1h, 0r, 2bb, 2k) walked the tightrope in the ninth for his first career save.

THIS LITTLE PIGGY HAD NONE: The Indians earned their second-ever sweep over Lehigh Valley with last night's 3-1 triumph, sweeping away the IronPigs in dominant fashion by outscoring them 19-9 in the series. The sweep was Indy's fifth three-game sweep of 2018 (6/5-7 @ ROC, 6/19-21 vs. NOR, 6/25-27 @ TOL, 7/6-8 vs. COL, 8/7-9 vs. LHV). Lehigh Valley had only been swept once all season (5/15-17 @ SWB) prior to the series. In the head-to-head series dating back to 2008, Indy's only other sweep of the 'Pigs came in 2015 (3 games, 5/1-3 at Victory Field).

MATHIS-TEN: Wyatt Mathisen has hit safely in a season-high 10 consecutive games dating back to 7/29 vs. BUF. During his hitting streak, he's batted .343 (13-for-37) with two homers, two doubles, 12 RBI and six runs scored. He's also walked and struck out just three times apiece during the streak. The hot stretch has raised his average from .250 to .270, its highest point since it was at .271 on 7/15. His 3-hit performance Tuesday night matched a season high previously accomplished two other times (5/15 @ NOR, 5/28 @ CHA).

WINNING THE CLOSE ONES: Since 7/22 (19 games, 14-5 record), the Indians have had 14 games decided by two runs or less, going 10-4 in those contests. Indy was 19-22 in games decided by two or less prior to the recent stretch.

SUCCESS VS. PAWTUCKET: Since 2002 (16 seasons), the Indians are 9-4-3 in their season series against the PawSox. Indy needs to win just one game this weekend to guarantee a season-series split with the PawSox. The Tribe have not lost a series to Pawtucket at Victory Field since 2005, winning sets in 2006- 07, 2010-12 and 2015 while earning splits at The Vic from 2008-09, 2013-14 and 2016-17.

BY THE NUMBERS - .615: Jacob Stallings owns a .615 average (8-for-13) over his last three games, with four of his eight hits coming from his cycle on Tuesday night. In the six games prior to the hot stretch, he was just 2-for-25 (.080) at the plate.
