This Bauer guy...lol.

Has gotten 2 guys throw out at the plate and has gotten out of 2 bases loaded jams and hasn't given up a hit yet.

Why is Bauer batting?

Oh cool, thanks to Marson getting hurt, they had to move the DH (Santana) to catcher, and the pitcher has to bat.

That went as expected (3 pitch K)

Wow. Tribe got hosed by Buckner on that one. Not surprising.

Pitching matchups have been so atrocious this series for the tribe...and today won't be any easier. Gotta find a way though...go tribe!

When was the last time a team faced both reigning CY Young winners in the first 6 games of the season? Not sure if that has ever happened.

Also, when was the last time a team didn't muster a single run in a series?

I don't have the answers.

Mark Reynolds 2nd homer today was an absolute bomb. Hit off the facing of the upper deck.

10-0. Save some runs for tomorrow boys.

Masterson has now beat both of last year's Cy Young Award winners....and did so in his first two starts.

Masterson has ace stuff, as he showed today. His thing is command. When he has it he can pitch wirh anyone.

The Tribe will be fine this year.. This offense is going to have it's ups and downs as new players get accustomed, but I think the offense is going to be very dangerous.

Pitching outside of Masterson and Ubaldo, given their starts to the season, is where the true greatness of this team will be challenged.

I think that's a great assessment. This first week will be similar to their year. First 2-3 pitchers will be tough, after that need someone to pick it up. Hitting will be feast or famine.
