The Guardians get one more run out of their home run than the Rays, and Cleveland takes game one of the wild card series 2-1. Jose Siri, who slugged .339 in 2022, gave the Rays a 1-0 lead in the sixth with his home run. Jose Ramirez pleased the home town fans in the bottom of the inning with a two-run shot, and that’s all the scoring there would be. Ramirez’s post-season career is somewhat disappointing, but his two for four today was a great start at turning this around.

Shane Bieber recorded his first post-season win as he lasted 7 2/3 inning with three hits, one walk, and eight strikeouts.
