CLEVELAND, Ohio — Guardians third baseman Jose Ramirez has changed his mind. Before Friday night’s game against the Cardinals, Ramirez told cleveland.com that Toronto right-hander Kevin Gausman hit him intentionally with a 95-mph fastball in the fourth inning Thursday at Progressive Field.

Vladimir Guerrero Jr. and Jose Ramirez both had to leave June 26's game after being hit by pitches. The Guardians weren't happy about it.

During the Cleveland Guardians' Thursday loss to the Toronto Blue Jays, star third baseman Jose Ramirez left the game early after getting hit by a pitch. Cleveland, who dropped two games of the three-game series against the Blue Jays, will kick off a series against the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday.
