Santana on second with a double.

What a difference another half inning makes.

The Indians have never had a lot of luck off Nathan. Granted he's an excellent pitcher, but I think there have been entire seasons where they never scored off him. He's no Troy Percival, that's for sure.

Looks like Minnesota is scoreboard watching......

They just came back in their 9th to send their game into extra innings.

Rottino sacrifices Santana to third. I think Manny Acta is having some fun tonight. That's his third sacrifice tonight. He really can manage.

3 strikeouts tonight with a runner at third and less than two out.

LaPorta can't git'er done this time around. It's up to Choo to get Santana home.

Choo can't git'er done either. I was hoping for an insurance run for Perez. No matter. The Tribe heads into the home half of the 9th with a 1 run lead. It's a 5-4 ballgame to the "WHINER"

If this team was going to lay down and die, it would have been that 9th inning.

If our fielders can hold in the 9th for just three errors on the night (two by our "silver bullet" trade deadline acquisition Lillibridge), Perez might get us a win and a chance to climb out of the basement pending the Minnesota final.

Here we go!

Gentry at the plate, Kinsler on deck, Andrus in the hole.

Gentry goes down on strikes. One bullet spent.

LOL!

Acta brings the injured Asdrubal in to play SS in the 9th after the two earlier Lillibridge errors.

He may be dinged, but he's better than Brent!

Kinsler lines out. Out number 2. One bullet left.
