Buffalo starter Sean Abbott kept the Cleveland hitters in check, while his team cruised to a win, 12-2. Abbott, now 2-2, was the winner. In 5.1 innings, he gave up 4 hits, while striking out 8, walking 2, and allowing 2 runs. The win takes Buffalo to 16-15.

Jorge Ramirez had a big bases-clearing double for the Bills in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Buffalo leading 2-1 and the bases loaded, he got a fastball from 26-year old right-handed pitcher Ben Harmon and swatted a double to center. It was his 16th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Bills ahead, 5-1.

"Nice to score a bunch of runs," said Ramirez after the game.
