Regardless of what happens tomorrow , that was a BIG win for the Tribe.
boo
Tribe wins 4-2
BIEBER!!
FRANMIL!!
Karinchak
Hand!!
Hats off to Hand who was hitting 92 &93 on his fastball tonight instead of barely hitting 90 in his previous outings.
Party at Dan Driessen's
GO TRIBE!!
Bieber is so damn good.
Offense still sucks. Thank the Reds pitchers for walking everyone. 3 damn hits.
Sandy bringing in Hand. Ugh. Worked out, but thought Karinchak had the role when he came in for the 8th
David Bell is a certified moron.
Mahle at 96 pitches of 1 hit, 6 shutout innings. Doesn’t bring him out for the 7th AND doesn’t pitch his best relievers (Amir Garrett)...bullpen gives up 4 runs
Francona, a good manager with at least 5% of a brain, does the exact opposite. Leaves Bieber out for the 8th despite throwing 98 pitches AND when he gives up a base runner, francona brings in his best reliever.
It’s not hard to manage a pitching staff, but David bell certainly makes it.

He out thinks himself more than any guy I’ve ever seen manage
Kipnis batting .500
Jose Iglesias batting .523
I wasn’t listening to the game, but I agree if Karinchak (one of the hardest names for me to type of all time) did good why not let him go to the 9th instead of rolling the dice with Hand. Well, it worked out this time.
And Laley - Even though Tito is not there and Sandy is in charge, are you saying Tito made the call?

No, I’m saying I wonder if Tito was there, if Karinchak finishes the game. Doubtful, as I’m sure they talked about all this beforehand. Just something to ponder.

Francona wasn't even at the game.

Well whoever was making those decisions for the Indians.
That actually proves my point even further, that someone with (most likely) no managerial experience managed the pitching staff better than Mr IQ David Bell
SMH
Taking out Karinchak was dumb....whether or not it worked is moo in my opinion
