Good job cat_lover!

Go Tribe. 

Roll Tribe!

Was nice to see White Sox take 2/3 from Boston.  Hopefully they can keep the momentum going.

Why exactly is Allen leading off now?!?

Tribe up 4-0 bottom of the sixth.

Whatever was wrong with Carrasco has been erased the last two starts. He is dealing tonight.

Tribe up 4-0 bottom of the 8th.

ZMac on in relief.

ZMac gets the first out and hits the 2nd batter and is replaced by Oliver Perez.

cat_lover dealing it. 

Go Tribe. 

Neil Ramirez on in the 9th (whom I had heard earlier today would not be availabile, along with Allen).

And he gets the job done!

Tribe wins 4-0

Carrasco 10k's

Brantley with another dinger

Bullpen gets the job done

Party at Harold Baines's

Go Tribe

my prediction is that he will be released before the end of the month...and fwiw, Neil Ramirez is the real deal

My hat's off to the Tribe brass for making, what look like, the smart moves. I was skeptical on keeping Brantley but that's worked out well. The Alonso signing has been solid also. Meanwhile, Carlos Santana, Jay Bruce, Bryan Shaw & Joe Smith have been less than impressive.

Because Kipnis and EE are injured. So Lindor bats cleanup.

He was so bad last year, and not has 3 MPH more on his fastball. If he’s cheating, I just hope he isn’t caught lol.

I knew he was batting 4th, but didn't realize both these guys were injured...thank you

Bad start. Plutko gives up 3 in the first. 

Plutko has settled down after the first inning but The Tribe only has one hit.

And now he's yanked in the 5th down 5-0. 

Meanwhile, we still have 1 hit. 

ZMac gets out of the fifth.

5-1 at stretch time. 

5-1 top of the 9th. Last chance.

Roberto Perez is worthless 

trailing 3-2 top of the ninth
