Indians vs. Rockies–Game 56 Open Thread

Well, Corey Kluber got the ball rolling for the homestand with tremendous, decisive, holy-crap-he’s-a-strikeout-machine win over the Rockies last night. This afternoon Trevor Bauer (1-2, 3.86 ERA) takes the mound for the Indians against lefty Franklin Morales (3-4, 5.65). What do the Indians need in order to win today? Bauer needs to keep it together, the offense needs to step up a bit, and yeah, the errors need to stop. Interesting chart from the Indians gameday notes:
