CLEVELAND -- Trevor Bauer had hoped to pitch a bloody good game. Instead, he had trouble finding the plate and his pitch count rose rapidly.Nine days after he walked off the mound with his stitched-up right pinkie dripping blood as if in some horror flick, Bauer failed to finish the fourth inning and left the Cleveland Indians with a two-run deficit. The Chicago Cubs went on to a 5-1 victory Wednesday night behind Jake Arrieta, tying the World Series at one game apiece as it heads to Wrigley Field for the first time since 1945.His postseason interrupted by a sliced finger, the result of tinkering with one of the drones he enjoys flying as a hobby, Bauer never got into a flow against the Cubs. He started six of his first nine batters with balls while scattering pitches high, low and wide. Anthony Rizzos RBI double in the first and Kyle Schwarbers run-scoring single in the third -- his first hit on a 3-0 pitch -- built Chicagos 2-0 lead.Indians manager Terry Francona said before the game he intended to use only three starting pitchers in the Series, bringing Game 1 winner Corey Kluber, Bauer and Game 3 starter Josh Tomlin back to face the Cubs on three days rest. Bauer needed 87 pitches to get 11 outs, an outing that might cause Francona to rethink his plan.A 25-year-old right-hander selected by the Arizona Diamondbacks from UCLA with the third overall pick in the 2011 amateur draft, Bauer is somewhat of an eccentric. He prepares for starts by making long tosses of about 300 feet between the foul poles. In an era when his colleagues are trying to refine and master two or three pitches, he throws a four-seam fastball, sinker, curveball, cutter, slider and changeup.He won a career-best 12 games this year, but his notoriety increased exponentially after he got hurt Oct. 14 when his finger was cut by his toys propeller, a mishap that delayed his AL Championship Series outing against Toronto. Bauer had the drone at his news conference before his Game 3 start, saying I brought my friend to answer any questions about what happened that I cant answer.Bauer lasted just two outs against the Blue Jays because the 10 stitches he received didnt hold and he began bleeding on the mound. Clevelands bullpen strung together 25 outs for the victory.The odd accident turned Francona into a comedian, too. He said Monday he reserved the right to alter the teams Series roster if we have another drone incident or anything with model airplanes or anything.Before taking the mound, Bauer tweeted a photo of a small drone and a gift card that read Go Cubs Go!I see the (at)Cubs fans love me! Bauer wrote. How nice of them to send me a gift!His offerings to Chicago were generous. Bauer threw 53 of 87 pitches for strikes, allowing two runs and six hits in a 90-minute outing that, well, droned on and on as baseball officials fretted over whether rain would arrive before the final out.Sprinkles started in the eighth, but the game went on without interruption.

His first stop after the layoff is the clay in Rio as he tests the back and tries to stay healthy for the French Open in three months. Alex Hales discovered the perils of being an England international playing in Australian grade cricket when he was subjected to a sustained spell of short bowling - and seemingly a few verbals - by Melbourne University CC.Hales has been turning out for Melbourne side Fitzroy Doncaster and has done pretty well, with innings of 42 off 27 and 66 off 40 from four T20 appearances. But footage of a less-successful outing has appeared on Melbourne Universitys YouTube page.Fitzroy Doncaster batted second in the Victoria Premier match on November 27, chasing a target of 111, and Hales managed just 5 off 10 balls. He faced at least four bouncers from MUCC opening bowler Steven Reid, before slicing a drive off Mark Stafford at the other end, although Fitzroy Doncaster still went on to win the match.Hales chose to return to Melbourne, where he has previously played for Dandenong and Croyden, to get in some practice ahead of Englands limited-overs tour of India in January. Hales had not played since Englands serries with Pakistan in September, having opted out of their recent tour of Bangladesh due to security concerns.ddddddddddddI wanted to get some cricket in and some training done outdoors before the one-day trip to India so I figured I best come out here and do something rather than be in an indoor training centre or the gym back home, he told the Manningham Leader. Its a good chance to get some miles in the legs and games in before the tour in January.Although Hales was dropped from the Test side after the Pakistan series, he said he had hopes of being involved again when England return to Australia next year for the 2017-18 Ashes.Ive still got ambitions to get back into the team, hopefully I can have a good summer next year and try and get back in it for the Ashes here next year, Hales said. If hes successful, he can doubtless expect a few more bouncers to come his way. ' ' '
