Yeah, right away I knew it was a good connection,”“And also the angle that the ball was going, I knew it was going to be a home run.”

Oscar Gonzalez wasn’t the only player to comment following Cleveland’s 1-0 win over Tampa Bay as Shane Bieber did as well saying I threw [the cup] up and boiled broth poured right on top of my hat,”I couldn't be happier about it. What a special time, and I'm so happy for him.”
