I don't know how the first 2 runs came, but the 3rd just came on a sac fly that scored Druby

No, but right on cue for our convo, Pronk laced a ball off the wall. Hit to hard on too much of a line to get out. But the Indians put 2 on the board that inning. Santana with the sac fly to put the Tribe up 3-1

Thank you. I somehow remembered an mlb.com account so I am watching it now. How did they score the two in the inning with the Pronk hit?

No kidding! You should share it, unless they have finally figured out how to block multiple people logging in ahah. We used to split 1 account 10 ways, and all 10 could watch at the same time.

No...Hits is home tonite 'sippin' a beer. DaughterHits was supposed to pitch this afternoon herself so I gave the tix for tonites game away. Unfortunately, her game was ppd because of the field condition....I coulda gone! In actuality, I won't make any of the BoSox series.

It let me watch the highlights to so I saw the RBI's were from Hanahan and Cabrera but thanks for the info. Hanahan has been playing very well, makes me forget all about Chisenhall for the time being. Choo really needs to step it up tho, as does LaPorta but we knew he'd be slow to start, if ever.

I'm not sure WTF Acta is letting Tomlin pitch to lefties Ortiz and Drew with a runner on....but he got away with one to Big Papi.

Tomlin pitched a great game! If our starting pitching can be consistent and give good starts the Indians could make a run. But I honestly don't see it

Ortiz watches Perez throw something like seven straight balls and then he swings away on a 3-0 count? Not sure I get that one, but I'll take it.

I loved seeing LaPorta with the delayed steal and later on Santana try to swipe one with Pronk up and two outs. This team isn't going to outslug anyone so they're going to need as many extra bases as they can get.

Also, did anyone else notice that Pronk has hair? Samson effect, maybe? :)

When the hell will they wash there hands with Kporta? I'd rather play Santana at 1st fulltime with sweet Lou behind the dish.

Right now they are playing good defense, moving runners, and getting them in from 3rd base with less than 2 outs. It's simple fundamental baseball, but they are doing it well. 2 very good starts in a row. And Boston is 0-4....

I was thinking the same thing after sunday's game. Santana is the best 1st baseman on the team. Lou is a very good catcher and can probably outhit LaPorta.

I have been down on LaPorta ever since he has sucked with the Olympic team. Also, Choo needs to wake up! That said, Hanahan, Santana, Cabrera, Pronk, and Brantley have been pleasant surprises. Gotta get the pitching staff to tighten up.
