The Indians are in the Motor City for a weekend series against the Kitties.

The Tribe took the opener last nite 2-1 beating Justin Verlander with solo HRs by Santana and Byrd.
Josh Tomlin was superb in getting the win...with flawless relief provider by Zach Mac and Cody Allen.

Kluber goes against Sanchez this afternoon trying for his first win.

I expect another sweep. Pitching sucks and the bats have gone silent.

Party like its 2007, where the cavs were beating the Pistons in the playoffs and he tribe beating the Tigers in the regular season. Good times.

Tribe pounding the Tigers in the 4th, 8-0.... As everyone in the lineup has at least one hit, including a blast by Gomes.
Kluber has allowed one hit thru three innings.

The Tribe pounds out 15 hits in a 10-1 rout of the Kitties.
Kluber goes 8 strong innings, giving up only two hits in 100 pitches. His lone mistake was a Saltalamaccia HR after the game was out of reach.

I'm so used to seeing the tribe get swept by Detroit regardless of circumstance that this weekend has been confusing. Glad that it no longer happens like that when the Tigers come up on the schedule (even if it's because the Tigers became exceptionally shitty while the Indians stick to their mediocre guns)

Our pitching sucks and the bats have gone silent.... It will be amazing to watch these guys in the ALCS.
I can't figure out how these guys have a chance to win today:RpS_blink:

Looking good again today.

Hoping Carrasco is ok, though.

Good series for the good guys. Always nice to beat Detroit. Hopefully Cookie is only on the shelf for a couple of weeks but it wasn't pretty.
