Indians reliever John Axford made things interesting before picking up his sixth save.
Axford entered the game with a two-run lead in the ninth, and struck out the first batter he faced on four pitches. After a single from Dioner Navarro, Axford managed to record the second out of the game. That's when things got interesting. Axford allowed another single to Melky Cabrera, and then walked Jose Bautista to load the bases.
With the bases loaded, Axford managed to get Edwin Encarnacion to ground out for the final out. Axford's ERA dropped to 3.52 after the appearance.
