The Cleveland Guardians host the Philadelphia Phillies in an MLB game Friday, May 9. Follow along for live updates from Game 1 of a three-game series.

CLEVELAND, Ohio — Kyle Manzardo broke the ice with a solo home run off Phillies starter Aaron Nola in the fourth inning Friday and the Guardians continued their trend of adding on late runs, scoring a 6-0 win against Philadelphia at Progressive Field.

The best way for the Cleveland Guardians to improve is to play against experienced teams, such as the Philadelphia Phillies, whom they beat on Friday night, 6-0. Gavin Williams struggled with his command in his last few starts. While there's still work to do, the flamethrower looked much better against a proven, veteran Phillies lineup.
