    José Ramírez ditches spotlight after another standout performance: Guardians breakfast

    José Ramírez was out the clubhouse door and gone before reporters had a chance to talk to him following Tuesday's 4-1 Guardians win against Boston. One would think after smashing an opposite-field solo home run in the eighth inning and with his team owning the best record in Major League Baseball that Ramírez would have something to say, but that is not how Cleveland's unassuming superstar operates. Ramírez's teammates, manager and opponents, however, had plenty to say about him and his latest performance. Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said he spent many years in awe of Ramírez's abilities from the other side of the field, and now he is glad to be on the same side.

    Red Sox not good enough to hold off baseball's best team as Guardians claim series opener late

    The Red Sox simply just didn't have enough. Not when the Sox' best option against the switch-hitting Jose Ramirez was lefthander Cam Booser in the eighth inning of a one-run game favoring Cleveland. Ramirez led off the home half of the eighth with a home run to right field, tomahawking a 98-miles-per hour Booser offering. The Ramirez homer was a part of a two-run Guardian frame that ultimately downed the Sox, 4-1, in the first game of a three-game set.

  • Subtlety in First

    The best record in baseball right now belongs to the Cleveland Guardians, and if you didn't know better you'd assume it didn't. Right now the Guardians are without Shane Bieber, they're only getting a .239 average out of Jose Ramirez [despite 18 RBIs and 3 homers], and only Ramirez and Carlos Carrasco remain from the 2016 World Series squad [though Carrasco famously skipped town for a couple years].
