6/18/25 | Inside the Guardians' bullpen rollercoaster that nearly derailed a win in San Francisco. When the Guardians handed a 3-2 lead to their bullpen in the sixth inning of Tuesday's game at Oracle Park, they were asking for four innings of shutdown relief against the San Francisco Giants. What they got was a masterclass in both bullpen dominance and edge-of-your-seat drama that ultimately secured the victory – but not before what Paul Hoynes colorfully described on the Cleveland Baseball Talk Podcast as “the circus” coming to town.

Prior to the loss versus the Mariners, Clase had allowed just three runs — one earned — since the end of April, indicating that the three-time All-Star may have rediscovered his groove.
