Worth the Riske?

The Cleveland Indians blew an 8-2 lead, allowing seven runs over the last three innings, including five in the ninth to lose to the White Sox 9-2. David Riske was the biggest culprit, allowing three runs on three hits and a HR in 1/3 of an inning. Betacourt, with the help of a fielding error, finished the job and blew the save. Riske is the only Indian with a save, but his ERA is now over 12.00.
