                                That throw by Choo was one of the best I've EVER seen. When are teams gonna realize he has the best arm in baseball? Man, that was a throw!

                                Choo gets robbed by a second baseman playing LF. Great catch.
How many times are we gonna hit the ball on the nose and have nothing to show for it?

                                Tribe really needs this one, and frankly, they deserve it.
The next 2 games are probably gonna be rough on our batters.

I don't care about pitching match-ups, Tribe has to get the offense going again.. Hasn't looked good in about a week now.

                                Tribe really needed this one today with Weaver and Haren up next. The good news, still 4.5 up in central.

                                Acta was throwing in the towel by bringing in Germano, but you can't burn out the pen again already. The pitching is keeping them in games right now, but things are going to get tougher for the Tribe. Sizemore and Hafner are done with their hot starts and chances are this is more of what we will see from them the rest of the year, not to mention Choo still isn't hitting. We desperately need another bat in the lineup.

                                Why is everyone in panic mode? Lol the bats will come to life...we have just been trying to hit some of the best pitching staffs in baseball, and frankly I am pleased to see these low scoring games....makes it very intense and every play/pitch counts. Gotta love a pitchers dual, and we have won a lot of those games this year. Lol

                                Lol oh no hafner goes 0-5 for one game he's done. Give me a break. Were facing damn good pitching. The bats will come to life and as long as the pitching holds up we will be atop the central the whole year

                                Sizemore hit 2 balls on the screws last night. Choo hit 3 balls hard last night. Unfortunately they were right at someone or a great play was made. That was the story of the night for the whole team. These guys will hit. There were 5 balls hit that, off the bat, looked to be at least doubles but were caught. Like OQB said, they have been playing the top 2 pitching staffs in the AL. And Acta didn't have much of a choice in bringing in Germano. Sipp and CP were not going to pitch last night. Unfortunately, everything Germano threw looked to be batting practice pitches.

                                Real tough loss. Really needed this one. Just hoping to get one of these next two.

                                I made it through the first inning and then traded zzzzzzz's for watching the rest of the game.  I DID see 3 sharply hit balls in the first that gave me hope.  Like others have said, let's get our fingers away from the panic button.
