    Guardians turn heads-up play in extra innings, catch Detroit runner off base

    Brayan Rocchio's big finish at the plate was set up by a big play on the infield. Rocchio, Cleveland's 23-year-old rookie shortstop, caught Tigers veteran infielder Javier Baez straying a little too far off second base after fielding a smash from pinch hitter Ryan Vilade for what turned out to be a critical out in the 10th inning of the Guardians 5-4 comeback win Wednesday at Progressive Field. It was Rocchio who delivered the game-winning RBI on a line drive single against a five-man infield in the bottom of the 10th, but without his heads-up play in the top of the frame, Cleveland might not have been in a position to win.
