Corey Kluber evened his record to 3 – 3 with an ERA of 3.48 after winning his last start.  In that outing, Kluber gave up 2 runs on 9 hits in 6.2 innings without issuing a walk while striking out 9.  Last season, Kluber was 11 - 5 with a 3.85 ERA in 24 starts and 2 starts.

Dustin McGowan  pitched to a no decision in his last outing after 5 innings of work where he allowed 2 runs on 7 hits (including a homer) with 2 walks and 2 strikeouts.  Without the decision, McGowan’s record stayed at 2 - 1 with an ERA of 4.63.  In 2013, McGowan didn’t factor in any decisions as he compiled an ERA of 2.45 in 25 starts.

Last season, McGowan pitched just an inning of relief against the Indians.  And in his career, he has only faced 7 of the current Indians.  Cleveland’s Asdrubal Cabrera is 2 for 2 with 2 RBIs against McGowan.
