Gee, Chisox beat Detroit.

Lucky the Tigers have the Tribe to kick to the curb, over, and over and over. Or they'd be under .500 - and that's serious.

Must be something to this Ohio = smart thing ...

No coincidence that the state starts ranking high in smarts after I move out.

Offense exploded for 3 runs but alas, not enough. (10 hits too. Not often we get as many hits as Kluber had K's!)

Rpz ... Rzy ... Uhhh ... That lefty reliever guy gave up 3 straight hits on 3 first pitches. First time in 100 years that has happened.

3 solo homers.....that's our offense this year

Kluber should have held the lead. Starting pitching continues to produce very ordinary results; I don't care about the 11 strikeouts; in major league baseball of 2015, 3 runs allowed in 7 innings [ERA 3.86] The average ERA in 2015 is 3.85. Kluber still hold a lead he is given.

Tribe pen blows it again!

Like most games this season, we can blame this one on the starters, or the bullpen, or the offense and all would be right.

At least our defense is better this year,

You win a few, you lose a few, and some are rained out, but you dress for every game.

Toru Murata to start for the Indians v. Ubaldo in the 2nd game Sunday.

Read it quick and thought Professor Toru Tanaka was going to wrestle Ubaldo tonight.

doesn't get a lot of strikeouts; gives up a lot of fly balls. Perfect pitcher for the Camden Band Box. He's had plenty of experienced taking one for the team and I assume he's out there for 4-5 innings minimum no matter how badly he gets battered.

I had that wrong, Ubaldo started the first game today v. Bauer. And he was the "good" Ubaldo, although you have to blame the Indians pitiful offense for some of his success.

He's given up 2 homers and 4 runs and he's done in the 4th. But the Indians may not score any runs again this game

Too late with the hook - bullpen blows it again!
