Tribe can’t grab Blue Jays’ well-placed ‘blooper’

TORONTO — The fourth-inning flare to center field didn’t feel like a hit off the bat to Ezequiel Carrera, nor did it look like one to Corey Kluber. Yet it wound up representing the deciding run in Tuesday’s Game 4 of the American League Championship Series.

Carrera’s soft one-out bloop bounced in front of Indians center fielder Tyler Naquin, chasing home Troy Tulowitzki from second base with the Blue Jays’ second run in a 5-1 victory at Rogers Centre that promised Toronto at least one more tomorrow.

“To be honest, it wasn’t good contact and the ball hung a little bit in the air, but when the ball fell, I was really happy,” Carrera said through an interpreter. “We’ll call that a ‘blooper.’ It was good for me.”
