When Cleveland Guardians right-hander Cal Quantrill takes the mound against the visiting Minnesota Twins on Sunday afternoon, he'll hope the welcome mat will be out for him again.
In previous years, a Quantrill start in his home ballpark practically was a guaranteed win for Cleveland.
"This place is usually good to me," Quantrill said after the loss to the Rockies. "I just didn't make good pitches in bad counts and fell behind a couple of guys. We battled. But I just didn't have my best game today." "Cal turned it right back around there," Cleveland manager Terry Francona said after that start. "But he's a smart guy, and that's what smart pitchers do."
