Announced paid attendance was over 11,000 I think.

No shit. I said he deserves these wins. Mostly because our offense has lost him so many in the past.

Zach Mac goes for the Tribe tonite:thumbup:

....he will be opposed by ChiSox ace Chris Sale:thumbdown:

....game time is 4:05:thumbup:

So glad I went to the game last night. Masterson was amazing to watch in person. And that knock by swisher was long overdue.

Sidenote. One of my good friends was drafted by the White Sox. From what I hear the organization is very excited for him. I wish the Indians would have drafted him though.

.....some stats after 9 games

Bourn... .. .333 4 doubles 1 triple 1 HR 1 SB...OPS .958
Cabrerra.... .118 1 double 2HR 9K...OBP.211
Kipnis....... .125 3 double 11 K....OBP.171
Swisher... .258 1 double 2 RBI...OBP .410...OPS.701
Reynolds... .226 2 doubles 4HR 8 RBI....OPS.942
Brantley... .286 1 double 2 RBI...OPS.715
Santana... .500 4 doubles 2HR 5 RBI...OBP .567....OPS 1.451
Chisenhall... .207 2doubles 1HR 6 RBI
Stubbs... .188 2 doubles 2 RBI 13K 0 BB 1SB

Santana:thumbup:
... Bourne, Brantley and Reynolds about as expected.
...need more from Swish and Chiz
...Druby Kipnis and Stubbs seriously slacking.

Aviles has given some quality ABs... .308 1 HR...OPS .896.
Raburn..not so much .182
Marson and Gomes do not have batting averages yet

I am surprised the Tribe has not run more...only 2 stolen bases(Bourn and Stubbs 1 each)

Here's another stat line

Mr. Clean is 3-0 with an ERA of 0.41 :thumbup:

Masterson nicknames being bandied about....Nasty Masty...Mr. Clean...Justin-credible(LOL. sorry Tribe fans---that ones already taken)

Masterson will be receiving a certified letter if that last one gets picked.

Mark Reynolds can hit the baseball a loooooong long way.

Not much discussion today. Solid win for the tribe and hitting from swisher and Reynolds. Also a straight center 2 run bomb by Gomes.

Great outing by Zac Mac. 1 earned run in 6 1/3.

...a win tomorrow will really send the ChiSox into a tailspin.

I really love Reynolds at that 7 spot. And swisher has been heating up big time the last 4 games. Kipnis and drubs should get going soon and Santana should be back in a game or 2

Reynolds was 5th today. But I agree. Its so nice to have some power this year. Really nice to know we have power at all portions of the line-up. Really, really nice to know we wont have 97% solo shots this year.

McAllister was great today. Along with Reynolds.

Brett Myer will be wonderful to watch tomorrow. #shitnobodysays

The series finale at 1:05 PM today...

The Tribe sends Brett Myers (ERA10+) to face the White Sox' Jake Peavy.

Time for the savvy vet to justify his paycheck.......

Let's get out the brooms!:thumbup:

1-0 Tribe, top 3rd

More importantly, Myers got through a whole 2 innings without giving up a moon shot.

Myers pitched well....but bats no hit curve ball

3-1 final.

Pretty pedestrian offensive night, but that was a pretty pedestrian line-up. I cant wait for Giambi to be released.

Do you think he will be released or convinced to stay in a coaching role? I remember reading he was interviewing for coaching positions until the tribe gave him a call.

I dunno, but he has been terrible for awhile. I dont know why we even called him lol

Francona mainly liked his mentoring the younger players and he has been a huge influence in the locker room is my guess lol

That's why I think they might ask him to take on a coaching position (along with the fact he was interviewing to be a coach before he got a call from the Tribe).
