CLEVELAND — The Guardians struggles continued Monday, Aug. 25 at Progressive Field against the Tampa Bay Rays .
The Rays won 9-0 as the Guardians lost their sixth game in a row and 11th in their past 14 games.
Another American League Central Division championship or a wild card spot appear to be unrealistic at this point as the Guardians were shutout for the third game in a row, the first time that has happened to the franchise since June 12-14, 1991 at Cleveland Municipal Stadium.
