Tarp Controversy and Walk-Heavy Offense | Cleveland Guardians News
Description
White Sox pitcher Anthony Kay blasts Cleveland’s grounds crew for pulling the tarp too early, claiming the game could’ve kept going for 20-30 more minutes before rain hit — a delay that cost him a chance to save his bullpen. While MLB and Cleveland say they coordinated with the White Sox and knew the game would stop after a big fifth-inning homer, manager Will Venable disagrees with Kay’s take. The umpire ultimately called it, but the chaos highlights the pressure on crew and officials when weather strikes. Meanwhile, the Guardians snagged 23-year-old pitcher Ryan Degges from the Phillies for international bonus money, as he rehabbed from injury. Offensively, Cleveland’s been thriving on walks — third in AL — with manager Stephen Vogt saying getting on base that way leads to runs, even without power.
