Yikes.

The Indians entered the 9th inning trailing 2–1 last night. Like Thursday, that score did not hold. There were no runners in scoring position for Jose Ramirez when he came to the plate in the 9th, but that doesn't mean he wasn't able to drive one in. His solo homer tied the game at 2, but that wasn't the best thing that happened in the inning. Not even close.

What tops that?

For some reason, Opening Day Yankees closer Andrew Miller won't stop tweeting about Tyler Naquin. Weird.
