Right after the Guardians acquired Cecconi from Arizona as part of the Josh Naylor trade in December, he was on the phone with members of the team’s pitching staff. The Guardians suggested some changes that Cecconi might want to consider making with his pitches and delivery. “Slade dove right in,” said Vogt.
On Saturday, Cleveland won its fifth straight game against the Tigers between regular season and postseason play. Amazingly, the Guardians' 7–5 10-inning victory tied the all-time series at 1,161 games apiece. Sunday is the rubber match, and as all baseball fans know, the six best words in sports are Game Two Thousand Three Hundred Thirty-Five.
