CLEVELAND -- Carlos Carrasco wasnt about to let a bug in his eye get in the way of winning a game.Carrasco overcame the bug -- followed by a home run one batter later -- and the Cleveland Indians defeated the Houston Astros 6-5 on Wednesday night.The game-time temperature was 87 degrees, causing swarms of midges to journey from Lake Erie to the muggy ballpark. A bug flew into Carrascos left eye as he threw a pitch to Yuli Gurriel in the fourth inning.That was weird, he said. I tried to throw a curveball and maybe threw it 20 feet.Carrasco bent over and a trainer made a brief visit to the mound. Gurriel singled on the next pitch and Colby Rasmus hit the first pitch into the seats in right field, giving Houston a 3-2 lead.It doesnt feel good, Carrasco said of the bug attack.

Pinch-hitter Brandon Guyer added a two-run double in the inning and the Indians extended their lead over Detroit to 5 1/2 games in the AL Central.Cody Allen gave up a leadoff single in the ninth, but struck out the next three batters, including Jose Altuve -- the ALs leading hitter -- to earn his 25th save.Those are situations you dont like them all the time but in hindsight you enjoy them, Allen said. Its competition at its best -- game on the line. Hes one of the best hitters in the game.The loss cost Houston a chance to gain ground in the AL wild card race. The Astros still trail Baltimore by two games.Houston still led by a run when Francisco Lindor singled to start the fifth. Napoli hit his 31st homer -- a 433-foot blast three-quarters of the way up the bleachers in left field.Guyer, batting for Tyler Naquin, doubled in two more runs off Kevin Chapman.The whole fifth inning was a problem for us, Astros manager A.J. Hinch said. We needed some guys to get some outs, but I didnt have a lot of guys available (out of the bullpen).Gurriel hit his first major league home run -- a two-run blast off Andrew Miller in the eighth.Lindor was 3 for 4 for his 23rd three-hit game, a major league high. Lonnie Chisenhall had three hits and an RBI for Cleveland.FIFTH SPOT UPDATEMike Clevinger will start for the Indians in Minnesota on Saturday.

The Warriors were 7 of 30 from long range.You try to affect the games other ways when your shot is not falling, Curry said. Thats kind of the test. To stay locked in and not get frustrated because I know it wont happen that often. Wed like to make every shot every night and have that free-flowing offensive rhythm. But for us, if we can defend and not turn the ball over, were going to be in good shape most nights. Tonight was a testament to that.Jamal Crawford scored 21 points for the Clippers, who have lost five of seven. Four of their seven overall losses have come at home.Our spirit wasnt right, said Chris Paul, who shot 7 of 14. We gave them a lot of baskets. A team that shoots as well as they do, we cant give them points.Blake Griffin struggled, scoring 12 points on 5-of-20 shooting and while committing seven of the Clippers 14 turnovers. J.J. Redick had two points, well under his 15.5 average.I turned the ball over, I missed some easy shots, forced some bad shots, Griffin said. We got some work to do, obviously.The Warriors set a dominant tone in the first quarter when they shot 56 percent. They erased the Clippers one-point lead with a 28-9 run to lead 37-19.Golden States defense smothered the Clippers shooters, who were held to 33 percent in the first, and forced coach Doc Rivers to bring in his second unit. The reserves couldnt get anything going while Thompson, Curry and Green combined to score 15 consecutive points as part of Golden States big run.Great night defensively, Warriors coach Steve Kerr said. If we defend like that and take care of the balll, even on a night when shots arent going in, we have a chance to win anywhere, even on the road against a great team.ddddddddddddrailing by 20 early in the second quarter, the Clippers clawed back within seven on three 3-pointers by Crawford, including a rainbow that just beat the shot clock. Paul added seven points and DeAndre Jordan dunked to get to 53-46. But just as quickly, the Warriors restored their lead to 62-49 at halftime, capped by Greens 3-pointer.Even a 12-0 run by the Clippers only cut their deficit to 14 points late in the third after they fell behind by 27 earlier in the quarter.
