CLEVELAND - When it comes to beating the Yankees, it doesn't matter how it gets done, all that matters is getting the 'W.' The Tribe did just that on Friday night, thanks in part to another solid outing by rookie Shane Bieber, who responded after two not so great outings for a very good performance, allowing three runs in seven innings. The offense got off to another solid start, and built a 4-0 lead after two innings before the https://www.heybravesfans.co… Yankees finally got some runs on the board. The win puts the team at 51-42 on the season, and they now have shot on Saturday to get a make sure they get no le s than a split in the four-game set when they go again against New York at 7:10pm. Here's three takeaways from a much needed win for the Tribe and a satisfying one over New York.1. Calm, Cool Bieber Indians starter Shane Bieber put up his best outing since joining the starting rotation, stopping a Yankees team that https://www.heybravesfans.co… put up six runs on Tribe ace Corey Kluber on Thursday night. He was staked to a four-run lead, and went while he did allow three runs, he was still very good, striking out six, walking two and allowing five hits in seven innings of work. Bieber threw 99 pitches in the win, 64 https://www.heybravesfans.co… strikes, and got ahead in counts which is a key against a big offensive team like New York. The Tribe rookie is now 5-1 on the season, his ERA sitting at 3.74 on the season following the win.Scroll to Continue2. Quick Start Leads to Succe s The first two games of the set the Indians have jumped out to a lead, and unlike Thursday's eventual 7-4 lo s, this time the offense did enough to get the win. They scored four runs in the first two innings, with huge hits by Yan Gomes and Michael Brantley to get pitcher Shane Bieber staked to a lead. The first four in the Indians lineup also drew six walks, showing how patient they were at the plate against Yankee starter Domingo German who they knocked out after four innings. They also outhit New York 8-7 in the win, with again the top three Indians All Stars leading the way https://www.heybravesfans.co… going 5-for-10 with four RBI and four walks in the win.3. Applause for the Pen The worst pen in baseball did its job on Friday night, despite closer Cody Allen getting into what could have been disastrous trouble in the 9th inning after allowing a solo homer to Gio Stanton to start the inning. Allen with the Indians up 6-5 gave up a single to Greg Bird, and then pitched his way into the biggest play of the game, getting Miguel Andujar to ground out into a huge double play. Of course it wouldn' https://www.heybravesfans.co… t be that easy, as Allen then walked Neil Walker with two outs, but got Didi Gregorius to pop out to end the game, earning his 19th save. Add to that the outing for both Oliver Perez and Neil Raimrez, who got out of the 8th inning without any damage. These are the types of outings this unit needs on a nightly basis.
