CLEVELAND (AP) Jos Ramrezs two-run single highlighted a six-run eighth inning, Tanner Bibee and three relievers combined on a four-hitter, and the American League Central-leading Cleveland Guardians beat the San Diego Padres 7-0 on Friday night. Cleveland had five hits and a bases-loaded walk by David Fry in the eighth, but the big hit was a single up the middle by Ramrez that gave him 79 RBIs the second-most in the majors behind Yankees slugger Aaron Judge (86). Brayan Rocchio added a two-run single and Tyler Freeman had a sacrifice fly in the inning for the Guardians, who have the best home record in the majors at 31-11. Their 59-37 overall mark trails only Philadelphia (62-35). Weve got a good balance where we are right now, somewhere between lets keep doing what were doing and lets turn it up a lot, Bibee said. Were in a major buy-mode (at the trade deadline), I hope. Bibee (8-4) worked 5 2/3 innings, Marcus Pettersson Jersey limiting San Diego to two hits and not allowing a runner past second base. Cade Smith, Hunter Gaddis and Nick Sandlin wrapped up Clevelands ninth shutout of the season. Weve all known that Tanner is a bona fide ace, Fry said. Now, the whole league is finding out. Theyre circling his name and hes still putting up zeroes. Luis Arraez and Jake Cronenworth had two hits apiece for San Diego, which is 1 1/2 games out of the final NL wild-card spot. Arraez sat out the All-Star Game in Texas this week to rest his jammed left thumb. We started off pretty good and got Bibees pitch count up, but we couldnt get anything going, San Diego third baseman Manny Machado said. We are hitting the ball hard, but right at people. The Guardians took a 1-0 lead in the fifth on Daniel Schneemanns double off Matt Waldron (5-9). Fry scored on the play and went 3 for 3, three days after singling home a run in his All-Star debut. Waldron gave up six hits, did not i sue a walk and struck out six. The righty was drafted by Cleveland and traded to the Padres in a nine-player deal that included Josh Naylor. Matt has been a stronghold for our pitching staff, Machado said. Hes been doing really well. The Padres, who have played an MLB-high 100 games, slipped to .500. TRAINERS ROOM Padres: OF Fernando Tatis Jr. (right leg stre s reaction) mi sed his 18th straight game, but is swinging a bat and playing catch. Its still there -- the actual stre s reaction but the swelling and fluid is pretty well gone, manager Mike Shildt said. Thats obviously a positive. Guardians: LHP Matthew Boyd (Tommy John surgery) struck out seven over three innings, allowing an unearned run, in his initial rehab appearance for the Arizona Complex League Guardians. Boyd is targeting mid-August for his return to the majors. UP NEXT Padres RHP Dylan Cease (8-8, 3.99 ERA) takes on Guardians RHP Gavin Williams (0-1, 3.77 ERA) in the second game of the series. Cease has thrown 1,078 breaking balls over his 20 starts, the most in the majors. Leo Boivin Jersey
