Cleveland Guardians Star Sets New Mark in Franchise History

The Cleveland Guardians got back to .500 on Tuesday night with a 6-3 win over the Baltimore Orioles at Progressive Field. The Guardians, who won the American League Central last season, are now 50-50. While they are still on the outside-looking-in of the playoff picture, they do have the easiest schedule in the league remaining, and they may decide to hold at the trade deadline as a result.

Left-hander Joey Cantillo earned the win on the mound, going five innings and striking out five. He gave up just one earned run in moving to 2-0 with a 3.91 ERA.

Offensively, Cleveland was led by Angel Martinez, who went 3-for-5, and Jose Ramirez, who went 1-for-2 with a home run, a run scored, an RBI, a stolen base and three walks. One day after joining the 20-20 club for a seventh time in his career, he joined the 20-30 club, and set a new mark in franchise history.

Per Justin Havens of Underdog Fantasy on social media:

José Ramírez secured his 3rd career 20-HR, 30-SB season tonight (2018, 2024-25), the most such seasons in Cleveland franchise history, breaking a tie with Grady Sizemore (2007-08) and Roberto Alomar (1999, 2001).
