It sucks to be down like this again but we've faced three very very good pitchers in a row. Tomlin didn't have his best stuff but he did settle down and get through 6 innings without giving up a run after the 2nd.

Not sure I agree with the criticism of the Tribe's lineup up to this point. It has lead us to the best record in baseball to this point so you can't say it was a terrible. I'm glad some adjustments were made but it's been pretty damn good all year.

True, but it doesn't feel like it. I just don't want us skating into the playoffs to be shellacked. Gotta prove we can win against these teams now.

It will be a big challenge again tomorrow with Carrasco going against Shields. Have to hope Carlos keeps us in the game. Runs will hard to come by again.

Let's just make the play-offs and then see what happens! I know what you're saying about "it doesn't feel like it". I'm an old guy and just sayin' ....enjoy this. First place right now and first place into June. That's rich. So we wait for the "swoon"?

Go Tribe!

Tigers & White Sox, who I think are the biggest threats, both lost so that's good. Not really liking the Tribe's recent play though.

Is 3 the Indians longest losing streak all season? If so, that is one of smallest. The defending champs just came off getting swept at home. Red Sox and Rays both lost atleast 6 in a row at one point. Rangers dropped 5 in a row earlier. It happens. As long as the bullpen and starting pitching (save for the 1st inning last night) continue to do what they have been doing, this club is going to win a lot of games.

Yep, I do believe 3 is the longest. Hopefully it stays that way.

man, we caught all the breaks and missed a lot of good pitchers at the beginning of the year, but now we are catching ZERO breaks. I do not like our chances at all today.

Was that not a balk on the pickoff?

We really bailed Shields out that inning.

Good start for the Tribe. Coulda been better but will take 3-0 in the 2nd.

Does anyone swing harder than Santana? He'll hurt something someday he swings so hard.

If CC gets through the 5th without damage..I would turn this thing over to our pen. He walks the tight rope so often.
