  Austin Jackson robs Chisenhall of a 2 run HR or maybe a double after looking at the replay.
  
  Indians 1-0 after 2.

  Giambi has been a VERY pleasent surprise off the bench. .320+ with RISP??? Nuts for a guy his age. Granted, in limited opportunites, but love the fact he hasnt squandered them. Despite hitting sub .200 all year, I think we all agree he is a dangerous bat in the line-up...

  Big knock for Giambi. Could have been more but good to have the lead.

  Damn. At least we got one
• Laley23

  

  I dont think that ball gets out. I think Jackson jumped a step early. I say that because he didnt hit the wall when he landed.

  I can't stand Underwood...time for the mute button and Mr. Hamilton
• Dan Gilbert

  

  Let's see if Stubbs tries to bunt down to Cabrera. Bourn tried earlier but the ball died too quickly.
• Dan Gilbert

  

  Martinez hitting some crazy pitches for weak singles.
• Laley23

  

  Kipnis, Cabby and Brantley due up... I smell some runs!

  Time to get a couple more boys.

  As an aside, I flipped over to MLB Network during that commercial. They were talking about this series and Asdrubal in specific. Said they took a few calls for trades but being in the race didnt shop him at all. The calls they took didnt really make it very far (presumably because we asked for a lot since we werent sellers).

  Pretty good chance they really shop him in the off-season. And his value continues to drop

  Jesus those were some ugly at bats. Almost looked liked they weren't trying.
• Dan Gilbert

  

  Santana just missed a 2 run shot!
  
  2-0 Indians
• Laley23

  

  Damn! JUST got on top of that a bit too much.
• royal_k

  

  Fuck just missed a bomb
• ts1227

  We shouldnt have wasted our amazingness on the same inning...

  I have to agree with Laley about Brantley. He has gone 200 strait games without making an error and leads the league in OF assists. I can't think of another LF having a better year.

  A/a/was a asszassass

  And has quite a few really nice running catches. He doesnt have the diving catches, but he makes up for it (and more) because he has more speed than most LFs to get to a ton more balls.

  I think he makes it look easy...smooth. but that doesn't get you anything....you would be better off taking shitty routes and then diving like Choo always did lol

  There were 9 first time gold glove winners last year. It isn't really a name recognition award... at least not compared to most other awards. I mean, Darwin Barney won one last season. And no, I didn't just make him up.
