Tauchman, who just came off the injured list
after a right hamstring strain, was tagged out by catcher Austin
Hedges for the final out after the throw from left fielder
Steven Kwan.
Emmanuel Clase got his first save of the season, despite
allowing three hits and a walk with two strikeouts. Paul Sewald
(1-1) got the win.
One day after celebrating his 39th birthday, Santana drove a low
slider from Sean Burke (1-2) on a full count into the stands in
right-center to give Cleveland a 3-1 lead in the third.
Jhonkensy Noel had two hits, including an RBI single in the
first inning to snap an 0-for-15 skid.
Chicago took a 1-0 lead in the first when Lenyn Sosa lined a
base hit to left-center. The inning was extended earlier when
Cleveland third baseman José Ramírez bobbled a potential
double-play ball for his sixth error of the season.
Key moment
Ramírez scored on a wild pitch from Burke to give the Guardians
a 2-1 lead with two outs in the first. Burke's changeup went
through catcher Korey Lee's legs. The ball got only 5 feet away
from Lee, who was able to throw it quickly to Burke at home, but
Ramírez beat the tag.
Key stat
Santana, in his third stint with Cleveland, is batting .286 (12
for 42) with two home runs and four RBIs.
Up next
Chicago right-hander Jonathan Cannon (0-1, 3.12 ERA) faces
Cleveland RHP Gavin Williams (0-0, 4.50) on Thursday afternoon
in the series finale.
