Angel Martínez hit a tiebreaking triple in the 10th inning, José Ramírez followed with an RBI double and the Cleveland Guardians beat the slumping Detroit Tigers 3-2 on Wednesday night. Cleveland tied it at 1 in the ninth when Daniel Schneemann scored on Patrick Bailey's groundout.

Maybe "epidemic" is too much. But after the Detroit Tigers' and Pistons' struggles against their Ohio rivals recently, we're all a little sick of it.
