The Indians will try to halt a two-game losing skid tonight as they face the Texas Rangers at 6:10 PM at Progressive Field. The Tribe has gotten off to a disappointing start in the current ten-game home stand, having lost two of three to the Baltimore Orioles prior to yesterday’s 9-2 drubbing at the hands of the Rangers.

Team ace Corey Kluber will pitch for the Indians. Kloob’s last two starts, one against each color of Sox the AL has in the top drawer of its dresser, were solid ones. He pitched at least seven innings in each start, and gave up only one homer (and that a solo shot), which is more than some Indians pitchers can say for themselves in recent days. The Rangers will counter with veteran Colby Lewis, who, like Kluber, is a righty. He too has won his last two starts, but he got lucky in his last outing, getting the W despite having allowed six runs over five innings of work. Nevertheless, Lewis enters tonight’s game with a respectable 3.38 ERA.
