Ick, Lexi against a submariner. I can't remember him doing well in this spot.

QUOTE (mcgrad70 @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 09:05 PM) Last time I looked the Indians were in first place....they're doing something right. Then you should also check the standings in about an hour or so.

Making the guy with the sore balls throw to 2nd. Seems mean but effective.

Wouldn't you think of Walking Matsui here?

PK14awesome.

QUOTE (mcgrad70 @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 08:56 PM) I don't ever recall a team being this bad in bases-loaded, less than 2 out conditions. The ineptness is amazing. Considering 12-ish teams have been worse this year, you probably should watch more Indians games.

5 hits, 6 walks, 1 HBP, 5 innings, 2 runs.

Tardy on every fastball away, fouling it off instead of driving it to RF.

Most pitches Gio's thrown in an outing this year is 116.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 08:50 PM) I want a double blastro. Kurt Suzuki disagrees.

Pitch 100 will start it off to Castro.

Replay = painful.

Suzuki however may not be alive any more.

6 hits up the middle in 3 games for Rios.

Official Scorer is being harsh on Sox fielders tonight.

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 08:36 PM) Seattle broadcasters were talking the other day about Konerko's last 9 or 10 homers off Seattle...ALL solo hrs. Seattle's had good pitching for several years, so they haven't given up a ton of baserunners. On average, teams have 56 HR this year and 33 of them are solo shots, so something like 60% of HR are solo shots.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 08:36 PM) These are the opportunities that bite us in the butt late in games when we piss them away. That's the short description of the first 5 innings both yesterday and today.

88 pitches through 4 for Gio.

H. Christ.

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 08:31 PM) The last 5 years or so....do we lead the majors in solo home runs? Not exactly complaining, but jeez! We're #7 in MLB in total HR and #9 in solo HR this season. We hit a lot of solo HR because we hit a lot of HR.

Wow, cool catch by Stone on how Suzuki is sending the signals.

QUOTE (JoshPR @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 08:23 PM) C'mon Ramon make our hometown proud Good call.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 11, 2011 -> 08:17 PM) Danks gives it right back. I still can't believe we are playing Dunn tonight He's joined in the Base on Balls and line drive parade just as much as anyone else.

Crap. Get the free run, give it right back. Just like last night, it feels like we ought to have 4-5 already.
