The Tribe is getting banged up. We just need to play .500 ball with all these guys out.

Yeah, the Indians website must have made the change in the line up while I was tying the original.

Isn't turf tow something that can be a problem for awhile?

They may have to bring another player up is Buck is going to be out. Jerad Head or Chad Huffman would be candidates. Head is leading the IL in hitting.

Hall of Fame linebacker Jack Lambert was forced to retire due to turf tow (toe)

It's when your toe gets towed on the turf! ;-)

Interesting line up tonight. Congrats to O-Cab and let's go Tribe!

Toe injuries are dicey. Kyrie Irving missed 80% of the season with a toe injury. (as we all know)

Tribe on the board with a Choo double and a SF from Santana.

Tribe on the board 1-0 with a sac fly from Santana. Then Duncan barely misses a base hit to score another one. I am starting to really get annoyed with Grady and Hafner having injuries ALL the time. I mean Hafner doesn't even play the field. It is just getting a little ridiculous.

Starting off bad in the first, but did anyone just see that? Ramirez was rolling on the ground like he got shot, but the replay makes it look like the ball came nowhere near his hand. Also, why is it a walk if it hits your hand while on the bat (was squaring to bunt and was pulling it back). I could have sworn that should be a foul tip.

Why does Carmona give Konerko anything to hit. He owns him. Fucking walk the guy. I don't care if 1st base is open or not.

Not many players I hate more than Paul Konerko.

This. I'm sure there are others, but on Chicago gotta be that asshat, along with Guillen. And I still have a little hatred for Jim Thome.

Fausto looks bad tonight. Cant hit anything close to the corners so far.

Im talking pure production versus the Tribe. He fucking rakes. Only guy I can think of who was more is Mike Sweeney, but he is gone.

Yep. He is so frustrating as a pitcher. He will be just dominant, and then just be awful. The worst is when the inconsistency is within the same game!

Never more evident than tonight. Where was this Fausto at in the first 2 innings?

Man, the Chi-Sox own Fausto. Now 18 runs in two starts against him.
