Tribe v. Tigers this weekend

• THE4RINGZ

  

  Time to right the ship.
  
  Let's go Tribe.
• KnightXC1

  

  Tigers up 3-1 already. Cabrera has gone yard for a 2 run shot in the first and Grady Sizemore hit his first homer of the year for the Tribe.
• Mulva

  

  7-1 Tigers. The Indians ship is going nowhere but further underwater.
  
  Go Cavs!
• From the Hills

  

  The tribe is horrible. Dick Jacobs is turning over in his grave wondering how Dolan and the front office have screwed things up so bad that we're back to watching 80's tribe baseball with 70's tribe attendance.
• THE4RINGZ

  

  I happened to switch over to the Indians game at half time of the Cavs games. Just in time to see the explosion.
• HitsRus

  

  ughhhhh.
• Glory Days

  

  wow, wasnt expecting to see the tribe come back. 7-6 tigers bottom 4th bases loaded.
• THE4RINGZ

  

  Kearns needed to put one of those pitches in play.
• Glory Days

  

  well so much for that, Kearns strikes out then Hafner strikes out looking. gotta put the ball in play with the bases loaded.
• THE4RINGZ

  

  Bases loaded one out number four and five hitters both strike out. Going back to the Cave blow out.
• HitsRus

  

  Tribe's rally took long enough to keep the game from becoming official.

  At least they didn't lose
• gabuckeye

  Now they lost. Go Tigers.
• KnightXC1

  

  Tigers with a nice win today 6-4 over the Tribe. Verlander pitched well and Zumaya and Valverde close the door at the end. Indians struck out 15 times today, which is just miserable. Pitching hasn't been all bad but if they can start hitting they should be alright.

  Grady(KING OF THE K)Sizemore was as bad again today.
• Mulva

  

  Valbuena goes 0-3 (.167), gets caught stealing, and commits his 5th error.
  
  Marson goes 0-3 (.200) with 3 Ks.
  
  LaPorta goes 0-4 (.203), and now has 0 HR and 1 RBI in 74 at bats. On pace for 0 HR and 6 RBI for the season.
  
  Good thing we signed Branyan too. He provided a clutch pinch hit K in his only at bat.
  
  The future is bright! No wonder Shapiro is getting promoted to team president instead of being fired!
  
  P.S. welcome back Kerry Wood. 0-1 with a 27.00 ERA after 1 appearance.
  
  Meanwhile the Acta-less Nationals won again today and moved to 16-14. But he's a good manager and nobody could possibly win with that team (even though they went 26-61 with him last year and 33-42 without him).
  
  Everything about this team not named Choo makes me want to vomit.
• HitsRus

  

  Can we please put Grady back in the leadoff spot? This 'experiment 'has gone on long enough. He struggled when Wedge batted him 3, and he obviouisly can't hit in the 2 hole....time to put him back where he's comfortable. Time to give Marte some extended time. Send LaPorta back to Columbus and let him get well.
  
  JP with another o-fer. Hafner with some signs of life.
  
  
  Here's the lineup when Druby is back...I hope.
  Sizemore
  Cabrera
  Choo
  Kearns
  Hafner
  Peralta
  Marte/Branyan
  Redmond/Marson
  Valbuena/Grudzlienak
  
  If Branyan or Marte start to hit, move them up to protect Hafner.
• fortfan

  Tigers win their 10th in a row against the Indians. somebody beat the Twins.
• dazedconfused

  

  wait, we played already? ah, glad to see we lost. proud of everybody in an indians uniform
• HitsRus

  

  Anybody else want to move Grady out of the 2 hole?
  
  Note to Manny Acta...IT"S NOT WORKING!
• newarkcatholicfan

  

  I say move Grady to Columbus so he can work on his stroke down there.
• royal_k

  

  Put him back in the leadoff spot where he belongs.
  
  lol at sending him to Columbus.
• BRF

  

  Things sure are going poorly right now. At this pace, we won't even have the storied "June Swoon"!
• tigerfan82

  won't be long until we catch fire BRF..............500 or bust again this year!!!!!!
• newarkcatholicfan

  

  4-1 Tribe right now top of three.
