Tribe @ Phillies (Series Thread)

• Laley23

  

  Despite being shutout in their last 17 innings, the Tribe are still red-hot. They head to Philly for a quick 2 game set of interleague play.
  
  After theTribe beat the Phillies up in Cleveland, Philly will be looking for revenge.
  
  Hopefully the offense returns, and fast.

  2-1 tribe after a solo shot for Philly and a 2 RBI single by Brantley. Only bottom of 2nd.
• Laley23

  

  A healthy Tribe line-up, where Brantley is batting 7th, is extremely dangerous.

  We need Reynolds to swing the bat with confidence, unlike his previous two at-bats...and speaking of confidence, it appears Kazmir's really starting to gain his as the game progresses.
• Laley23

  

  Reynolds ended up popping out, but I thought that should be a bloop double. The ball was in fair play when it hit the glove, imo, and I dont think you can say it would have landed foul with 100% confidence.

  Kazmir not pitching bad, but seems to be getting frustrated. Has hit the same guy twice now.
• iclfan2

  

  Apparently it's a 3 game cold streak. Can't buy a hit. Lead off triple in the 8th and you get nada outta swisher, Reynolds, and Brantley. Gross.

  Tribe breaking out a bit. Up 5-1 in the 5th. Good outing through 4 innings for Kluber so far. See if he can get a couple more in for a quality start.
  
  Astros actually have a lead in Detroit. Would be a miracle if they could beat the Tigers once this year.

  Crazy how bad phillies starting pitching is.

  They do lead the league in quality starts though...but 20th in era.

  Yes it is. These stats are after last nights win. The Phillies improved to 12-4 when Pettibone, Kyle Kendrick or John Lannan start. They're 7-16 in games started by the $64.5 million trio of Cole Hamels, Roy Halladay and Cliff Lee.

  Yea the offense is really really bad.

  This team is so damn depressing.

  Good job out of Kluber today. Pitched a solid game. Drew a walk and came around to score to help his own cause.

  Bats booming today! :thumbup:
