Joey Cantillo’s Waterloo Dooms Guardians
Some life late
BALTIMORE, MARYLAND - SEPTEMBER 07: Despite the efforts of several players, the Cleveland Guardians suffered a loss to the Baltimore Orioles on September 7, 2026. In the game, Joey Cantillo, a key player for the Guardians, delivered a disappointing performance as he allowed four runs and five hits over 2 and 1/3 innings pitched.
Franco Aleman, another Guardian, struggled as well, allowing a scheduled homer to Slade Cecconi. The game ended with a score of 6-4 in favor of the Orioles. The Guardians' management has suggested that Austin Peterson may be given more starts in the remaining part of the 2026 season until Ben Lively proves his readiness.
Though there were some positive moments, with Steven Kwan and Jo Adell contributing with two hits each and Nathaniel Lowe hitting a three-run homer in the ninth inning, the overall outcome was a significant setback for the Guardians in their ongoing series.
