9871I know Donald is not a defensive wizard but he must be able to play SS better than Lillibridge.
Re: GameTime!™
9872In fact just think how good old Tribemans John McDonald BA of .230-.240 would look on this team to say nothing of his fielding skills. That is how badly we have gone down.
Re: GameTime!™
9873Why, oh why is Lillibridge even in baseball let alone with the Indians?
This guy is terrible.

9874I think we may just have the mis-match of the century with Kluber vs Verlander. Let's see what happens.

9875I guess this is just another omen of what the season has been like so far. Verlander and Sale were supposed to pitch last night. The game gets rained and we get Verlander. I thought we might catch a break and start a little winning streak.

9876One bright spot, Verlander will not be "perfect" tonight.

9878Akron battles back from a 4-1 deficit early to take a 5-4 lead in the third. Akron leads the series 2-0. A win brings home an Eastern League Championship trophy. Carrasco gave up 4 runs in the first. In his second inning of work, he goes scoreless.
