Boom goes the dynamite… Tribe Lose Barnburner
This was a good ole’ fashioned Jim Ross Slobber-knocker.. By Gawd.
You never got the feeling it was over, even when Mathis hit the grand slam. Especially since the Indians ended up scoring 11 runs. But man that was not the overall pitching performance this team needed.
Rincon had another perfect outing, but every other pitcher gave up a run. Laffey’s ERA went from the 2’s to the 4’s in the past few starts. He was just awful… Just Awful man.
Four innings plus, 12 hits, 8 runs, 2 walks on 77 pitches.
Just.. Wow.
Mastny gave up four(not including the ones he gave up that were charged to Laffey) and Jensen gave up 2.
Offensively.. Man Man Man
Grady Sizemore had the BEWSH 25th of the year. He tied Quentin until Carlos went deep for the second time today. So he trails Quentin by one.
Peralta went 3-5 with an RBI. He continues to mash man.. Putting together some great at-bats as well. Just battled against Lackey.
Choo 2-4 with two RBI.. Marte 1-3 with an RBI and a walk. Garko had the big day finally starting… You gotta think Wedge is gotta start him more.. I mean come on, when is Casey Blake gonna get traded?
Anyway.. Ryan Garko went 3-5 with four RBI including a two-run blast to left.
Hell Even Dellucci (in the two hole now? What the hell) had an RBI.
It still wasn’t enough though.. Everyone in the starting lineup got a hit, except for Cabrera who really got into one with men on base but Juan Rivera made a great play to run it down. Blake’s 7 game hit-streak came to an end when he failed to get a hit in his pinch hit apperance.
Take this though.. Bruce Drennan just made a good point. This is the best record-wise team in the entire major leagues. So taking one from them, and losing by one and three runs isn’t bad. If only.. IF ONLY they played like this offensively yesterday and pitched like they did yesterday today.
Gotta put it together sirs.
Off Day Tomorrow-Which means a quick return to our new favorite feature.. Photoshop Off-Day! I know you’re excited. Then Friday we return home to face the Twins. Cliffffffffffad and Livan Hernandez. Let’s get 14 for the good man. Expecting a Hafner update tomorrow..
