The Indians begin a series in the Pacific Northwest tonight as Trevor Bauer takes the mound against Erasmo Ramirez for the Mariners. Seattle was contender for the second wild card before they were swept by both the Astros and Rangers over the past week and a half. At this point they’re 5 games back of the Minnesota Twins, with 3 teams in front of them and desperately need victories to stay alive at this point. The Indians hope to continue their torrid pace on the road, which now stands at 14 straight road wins.
