Rangers blank Indians as bullpen depth pays off
Texas improves to 3-0 behind Steve Comer and Sparky Lyle in a 4-0 win over Cleveland. Lyle pitched two perfect innings after Comer left the sixth, while a Cleveland error and timely hits by Pat Putnam and Nelson Norman produced two unearned runs in the second. Ted Cox had the lone Indian hit, and Jeff Torborg’s club stranded runners as the skid continued.
