Gotta hope Buck isn't hurt. He was really starting to hit.

Good to see some offense. Masterson gets his first win since April.

red sox, rangers, cardinals, yankees, white sox, rockies, giants, phillies, braves, nationals...


that list is for riders, just in case he wants to root for a winner tonight since the indians' opposition lost

He roots for all of baseball except for the Tribe because they play by a lake.

The Pirates haven't had a winning season in 17 years, yet he's not going to waste a season watching the Tribe... lol

SF is killing the AL Central, the Tribe is killing the Reds. I don't expect a sweep, but hopefully the tribe can pick up another game on the Tigers.. A 1.5 game lead would look much better going into the NYY series.

Didn't get to watch or post, but a good win. Gotta feel good for Masterson after going 2 months without a win.

Will today be the day Fausto gets back on track? He looked better his last start.

I was at the game last night. It was nice to be at a game where the Tribe showed some offense. I can't believe i witness a Strikemore hr in person. I am now 4-1 at GABP. Now time for Carmona to throw away game 2.

It's amazing that even with how much of a disaster the last month was, Tribe are in first place (albeit 1/2 game). The hot start and big lead they got off to were huge.

Kearns is starting for Buck. I can't find an injury update.

This. I'd rather see Kipnis or another young guy out there instead of "The Paycheck Collector" until Choo returns. With the pitcher and Kearns batting in this series it's like the Tribe is sending 7 men to the plate. Hell, I'll even take a pitcher's (hitting) production over Kearns.

A couple of our pitchers have hit the ball MUCH better than he has this season.

Guarantee Bailey gets a RBI here.
