Mike Napoli leads Indians past Tigers on Friday
Cleveland Indians first baseman/designated hitter Mike Napoli homered and collected four RBI's on Friday, powering the Indians to an 11-4 victory over the Detroit Tigers.
What It Means:
Napoli opened the scoring with a two run double in the first inning and he wasn't done there. He sent a two-run bomb into the seats in the fifth inning as well to top out his RBI total at four for the game. He finished 3-for-4 on the night and the Tribe's magic number is down to nine.
Napoli has been a force for the Tribe this season, slashing .251/.344/.496 with 34 homers and 98 RBI's. He has a .358 wOBA, but his strikeout rate is 30.2 percent, which is his worst mark since 2013.
