It was a nearly flawless performance from Williams, who capped off Tuesday's start by striking out five of the last six batters he faced. The one blemish to his night was a wild pitch in the fifth inning that allowed Kazuma Okamoto to score, but it was an otherwise spectacular night from Williams and a nice bounce back from his last outing against the Angels on Aug. 25, when he failed to make it out of the second inning. Williams' 13 wins are a career high, and he'll take a 3.81 ERA and 1.09 WHIP over 163 innings into his next start, tentatively slated for this weekend at home against Detroit.

Williams endured his shortest start of the season, surrendering a pair of home runs while needing 62 pitches (39 strikes) to record just four outs. Christian Moore and Vaughn Grissom both took him deep as Los Angeles built an early lead, but Cleveland's offense eventually erased the deficit to get Williams off the hook. The right-hander had been pitching reasonably well before Tuesday, but this disastrous outing pushed his ERA from 3.72 to 3.98. He's scheduled to make his next start at home against the Blue Jays.
