Delivered.

Chiz with 4 more hits, and is now batting north of .310.

Earlier in the thread I defended Gomes as this year's "Mendoza" line player...but for god's sake...you gotta hit at least .200. Gomes with 4 horrible plates appearances tonite is now .175 and dropping :(

Lol well at least we can beat the rest of baseball. Basically the inverse of 2014 I believe when Detroit went 15-4 against them or something like that

The Indians beat the Tigers eight times in 2014.

Work in Cleveland, leaving work after 1/2 day and going to the game with a buddy I used to work with. Hoping to see a sweep.

It was 2013. The Indians were 4-15 vs the Tigers. The Indians still made the wild card game that year, too.

No Rajai in the lineup today.

J Ram in left. Uribe at 3rd.

I guess we see eye-to-eye now...it's really hard to watch him this year--it's gotta be frustrating for him as well.

J Ram doubles to start the 2nd. Goes to 3rd on some little league throw it around the yard by the Tigers. Scores a Lonnie sac fly (that would have moved him from 2nd to 3rd). Tribe lead 1-0.

Tomlin has been sharp through the first 9 hitters. Middle of the 3rd.

Tribe doing the little things right today so far. Gimenez with aggressive base running to go 1st to 3rd on a single in front of him allows him to score on a Lindor sac fly.

2-0 Tribe after 3.

How the hell did the ump call him out for leaving early? Unless it is obvious, you are a jackass to call that. Tito appealed and he now looks like a moron.

I'm listening at work, did anyone see it?


Also, can't believe Giminez of all people went first to 3rd on a hit to rf. The Tribe is going to test their arms all day it seems.

And just like that 2-2. Maybin only has 2 home runs on the season. We all knew it was coming, just a matter of how many people would be on base.

It wasn't close. Just a bad call.

Tomlin breezed through the 1st 3 innings and running into issues in the 4th. 4 of 5 have reached plus a 2 run homer and still 1st and 3rd...1 out.

Shocking how fast Tomlin lost what appeared to be great, great stuff. Perfect 3 innings. A 3 run 4th inning and now laboring in the 5th after getting two outs. Miggy up with 2 on and 2 out.

Miggy nearly homers but ends up being a 2 run single.

5-2 Tigers. We'll need some come from behind magic this afternoon.

5 2 out runs for the Tigers in the 5th to blow it open.

Castellanos with a 3 run bomb to end Tomlin's day. I thought Tomlin had Miggy struck out to end the inning with no runs...didn't get the call. Then, Lindor boots a routine ball to extend the inning further and now it's 8-2.

I'm going to get some work done. Hopefully we can strike big vs the shitty, shitty Tigers bullpen.

He doesn't like to walk people and I'm good with that but you can't groove a 3-2 fastball to Miggy for the sake of not walking him.

Then you can't groove a get ahead fastball to Castellanos with two guys on.
