José Ramírez knew when he was 15 years old and growing up in the Dominican Republic that he could end up being a pretty good home-run hitter.

What may have been lost in Ramirez's historic night is the continuation of a remarkable turnaround from the Guardians. Cleveland (62-56) is 22-8 in its last 30 games. Following a July 6 loss to its AL Central rival Detroit Tigers, Cleveland was 40-48 and losers of 10 in a row.

The Guardians' José Ramírez passed Kenny Lofton on the club's all-time runs list, showcasing elite instincts that make the contact play deadly to opponents.

The Guards jumped out to a 3-0 lead yesterday with the help of back-to-back Ramirez and Manzardo homers. Too many walks and some slightly shaky defense allowed the Marlins back in it, at 3-3. The Marlins did not learn from their 3-0 hole, and pitched to Jose again in the 8th. Home run pitch. 4-3.
