Louis Varland tossed a scoreless ninth to secure his third save in as many opportunities.

After Ernie Clement began the first with a double and Daulton Varsho walked, Guerrero's single drove in the game's first run.

Sanchez then extended the margin to two with a sacrifice fly.

Juan Brito and Austin Hedges singled in the top of the fifth to place runners on the corners, before Brayan Rocchio's RBI single cut Cleveland's deficit in half.

After Martinez's double tied the game at two apiece, Fisher replaced Corbin and got out of the inning.
