Season series: Guardians lead 2-1
The Guardians posted back-to-back 5-4 home victories Saturday and Sunday against the San Francisco Giants after losing Friday’s series opener 4-2. Cleveland also won a pair of 1-run home games against Detroit back on May 6-8 in the season’s 1st series between these AL Central rivals.
