Indians win franchise-record 14th straight after outlasting Blue Jays in 19 innings, 2-1

The Indians set a new franchise record in a wild 19-inning, 2-1 win against the Blue Jays at Rogers Centre in Toronto on Friday that extended their current winning streak to 14 games.

The Indians and Blue Jays at one point went 12 innings without scoring a run. For the Indians, Josh Tomlin threw six innings and was followed by every reliever in the bullpen with the exception of Cody Allen.

For the last five innings, the Indians deployed Saturday's scheduled starter Trevor Bauer, who delivered five shutout innings.

In the 18th and 19th, the Blue Jays pitched position players. Ryan Goins got out of a jam in the 18th, but Carlos Santana finally came away with the game-winning home run in the 19th against Darwin Barney.

The game took six hours and 13 minutes. And the Indians still haven't lost since the Cavaliers won Game 6.
