Leadoff hit again in the 3rd {Brantley single} one out later he stole second, but this time Santana and Moss left him on.

Anderson stretches his career-opening scoreless streak to 10 2/3 innigs.

Another leadoff hit in the 4th, Gomes singles.

BUT we leave em loaded
8 for 59 with the bags juiced!

In the pen, Allen is fine after a bad month; Atchison is gone; Shaw and Rpz and McAllister and Webb and Hagadone are all way too inconsistent.

Well civ - you must have pretty high standards because the bulllpen is 9th out of 30 major league teams.

I will agree that the starters have been disappointing overall, but in their defense they pitch from behind all the time.

In fact, the pregame show mentioned Kluber had the WORST run support in the entire league.

Despite all the LOBs, we scored 7 runs, thanks in part to the Rays relief pitching.

...............

Ok lets see about 10 more in a row like today.

Great game by Cody Anderson. I think we've found our 5th starter!

John Kruk sees a simple formula that made Cody Anderson nearly perfect tonight.

Oh, and Grady broke up the perfect game after six innings with a homer. Nice way to show gratitude for all the Tribe did for him

Who were those guys in the Indians' uniforms tonight?

Until the last Tampa reliever arrived to throw gas on the fire, we were 2-12 with RISP.

Is our bullpen ERA that low? I'm surprised and maybe spoiled by a more reliable crew last year.
Wonder if the "letting inherited runners score" ranking is as high?

..............WE WIN!!!
...TWO IN A ROW!!
