Who would of thought coming into the season that steroid-less Pronk would have so much power. I called that home run at my house. Just one pitch too early.

Im hoping he might get 8, but I doubt it. At about 85 in the 7th now I think.

LaPorta is a beast at 1st base.

Close play at first to get out of the inning.

How in the hell did Brinkman miss that 3rd strike? Ball was close to the middle.

This defense is what Carmona has to love, as a ground ball pitcher. They have been tremendous today, starting with Asdrubal.

In other news, Dan Haren is making the White Sox look like 4th graders. Not too upset he shut us down.

Wild Thing on to try and notch his 5 save in as many chances this season.
1 pitch, 1 down.

Ballgame.
Perez gets the save
Carmona his first win on the year
Santana finally gets a hit
Sizemore, welcome back!
Pronk with a bomb.
A good day overall, and our THIRD sweep already!

Game. Really impressed by the bullpen this year. Perez is a beast so far.

Indians didn't win their 11th game of the season until May 9th last year. 3rd sweep of the year. Awesome!

Nope, but I think we swept the Rays in a FOUR game set. The Rays I think were the top team in baseball at the time, and the Tribe was...well, the Tribe. Hamilton was going nuts during that series haha.

Last year sweeps:
White Sox, April 16 - 18
Toronto, June 28 - July 1 (4 Games)
Detroit, July 16 - 18 (4 Games)
Detroit, September 27 - 29 (4 Games, 1 PPD)
I was mistaken, obviously, on the Rays sweep. It was May 25 - 28 (4 Games), but it was 2009.

Another great win by the Tribe. Fauso pitched well, the defense was amazing, Grady and Pronk went 2007 on everybody and the bullpen continues to be spectacular.
Go Tribe!
