Indians’ Bieber remains unbeaten

-

Shane Bieber struck out 10 in five innings to remain unbeaten in 2020 and Carlos Santana had two RBIs, leading the host Cleveland Indians to a 4-1 win over the Milwaukee Brewers on Sunday.

Bieber (7-0) gave up one run and five singles, but the right-hander ran up his pitch count — 58 combined in the fourth and fifth innings — and needed Cleveland’s bullpen to finish things off.

Brad Hand, the Indians’ fourth reliever, worked the ninth for his 11th save in 11 tries. It was his 100th career save.

Bieber came in leading the majors in strikeouts and added to his total by reaching double-digits for the sixth time this season.
