David Richard-USA TODAY Sports 4/23 recap & 4/24 news and notes Semi-wise fans spent Tuesday looking at the forecast and thinking a rainout might not be so bad, with Tanner Houck due to face the Guardians for a second time in the young season. Houck dominated the CLE hitters last week in a Maddux that took less than 2 hours for him to pitch. The rain did arrive. But it was never severe enough to stop play.
