Indianapolis Indians April 21 Week in Review


Indianapolis went 6-1 this week and improved their season record to 17-7, tops in the International league.  The Indians are 4.5 games ahead of Columbus in the Western Division.

The only loss of the week came in game 2 of a double-header against Lehigh Valley.  Six different pitchers earned wins this week for Indy.

Making a Major League rehab start, left-hander Francisco Liriano allowed just one run and struck out eight over 5.0 innings against Lehigh Valley on Thursday night.

Josh Harrison stole home against Lehigh Valley Friday night, one of three scores for him on the evening.

Indianapolis will play games 2-4 against Gwinnett at home and then will travel to Lehigh Valley for four games to wrap up the week.
