Slade Cecconi made the declaration of the century on July 4, when the Guardians lost their 8th straight game. "We're going to see ourselves in a great spot at the end of the season. I fully believe that.” All they did is make history. mlb.com/news/guardians…

Make that a 13-game on-base streak for Daniel Schneemann, who drops a two-run homer into the left-field seats. It's 2-0 Guardians.

The Guardians held a moment of silence pregame for the late Luis Isaac.

Great play by Brayan Rocchio here to corral Jesús Sánchez's 106.8 mph line drive and end the third inning.

Shawn Armstrong is going on the IL with a right groin strain. Colin Holderman recalled from Columbus.

Sunday’s Guardians lineup: CF Kwan LF Martínez DH Ramírez 1B Hoskins RF Fry 3B Schneemann 2B Brito C Hedges SS Rocchio SP Cecconi

Nice piece of hitting here by Juan Brito, who entered today 1-for-22 over his past seven games. He worked a seven-pitch AB before going oppo for a double. And he just scored from third on a contact play as I wrote this.

Steven Kwan was scratched with a stiff neck. New lineup: CF Martínez DH DeLauter 3B Ramírez 1B Hoskins LF Valera RF Fry 2B Brito C Naylor SS Rocchio

Final: Guardians 8, Blue Jays 6 Martínez logged his first career multi-homer game. Valera went 1-for-4 with a two-run double. Rocchio went 2-for-4. Schneemann went 2-for-4 with a leadoff homer.

Angel Martínez just homered on a 3-2 pitch off Max Scherzer, on pitch No. 11 of his at-bat. He has his first career multi-homer game, and both came from the left side of the plate he has continued to show improvement from this year.

@BrandonFerger 377 feet. HR in five parks, but not at Progressive

@tim_stebbins @CleGuardians Didn’t see the distance on that wall. Is it gone at Progressive field?

George Valera hit a ball perhaps as high as you can off the right-center-field wall here without it going over. Settles for a two-run double. Angel Martínez follows with an two-run shot. It's 5-0.
