Cleveland Guardians minor league recap for Monday, May 1, 2023

Lake County Captains 1, Dayton Dragons 8 (F/8)

Box Score · Captains sink to 13-7

Starting pitcher Ryan Webb had a rough day at the office, allowing five runs (three earned) on seven hits with four walks and two strikeouts in 5.0 innings of work.

Everyone in the bullpen also allowed at least one run, although not all were earned due to three Captains errors.

No one had a multi-hit game or reached base safely twice, although Christian Cairo at least hit a triple and knocked in a run.
