Cleveland Indians at Texas Rangers 04/05/2017
Hello and welcome to the start of the 2017 season, on 'Live Blogging On Shish On Baseball'. Tonight it is the finale of a 3-game set, as the Texas Rangers take on Cleveland Indians. Both teams are playoff teams, from last year. Tonight's pitching matchup is right-hander Danny Salazar for the Indians, and Cole Hamels for the Rangers.

Salazar started last year with a 10-3 record before the All-Star Break. But missed most of the Postseason with strained right forearm.

Hamels on on the other hand is hoping to redeem himself from last Postseason. Hamels got rocked in his only outing of the Playoffs, after winning 15 games for the Rangers.

It is the Cleveland Indians and Texas Rangers, coming up shortly.

Final Thoughts:
Well it look for a while that the Rangers would salvage a game in this series.  However Francisco Lindor and the Indians had other plans.  Lindor went 3-4, 2 HR, 5 RBI.   Lindor is the Player of the Game.  As for the Rangers, you wonder if their bullpen woes will be a problem for them in 2017.
