Third Inning


The third inning proved pivotal for the Jays as they capitalized on defensive errors by the Tribe. With two hits and three runs scored, Toronto took advantage of Cleveland's mistakes in fielding. The G-Men struggled defensively, committing four errors throughout the game that contributed significantly to their downfall.


Sixth Inning


As both teams settled into their rhythms by mid-game, pitching became a focal point. Tanner Bibee of Cleveland showcased his skills on the mound with an impressive strikeout rate of over 10 per nine innings pitched and maintained a low WHIP of 0.5 during his time on duty. Despite this strong performance from Bibee, who allowed only three hits over six innings while keeping his ERA at 3.0, he received little support from his offense or defense.
