Great game by Bieber. We are in trouble though if our offense doesn’t get any better.
posted by Laley23Hammy was talking about this in the 9th. Very concerning. He got away with it tonight.
Hand sitting at 89mph is about as concerning as anything the last few years. He is the anchor to the pen and in turn the season.
Today's game is at 5:10.
And thanks to the blown check swing call, two solo shots follow.
2-0 going to B1.
Tribe trails 2-0 after 2.
Tied at 2 after 3. JRAM RBI single and Hernandez scored on a wild pitch.
Tied at 2 after 4.
Still tied at 2 after 5.
Tied after 6.
7 gone ,still tied
Headed to the 9th still tied
Again, Karinchak is tightly wound.
Extra innings.
Very disappointing
......oh, we lost
Wasted a good pitching performance by Clevinger and the bullpen.
Let me elaborate:
KC bunts runner from 2nd over to 3rd and he scores on a sac fly. Royals up 3-2.
Tribe starts 10th with Pérez on 2nd and he is pinch run for by Allen. Zimmer gets hbp. 2 on, no out with the top of the order up........and three straight K’s.
Our offense is terrible.
Lindor with a real tough start to the year.

I'm not sure how I feel overall about the new rule, but it does benefit teams who good fundamentally on offense. A runner on second with no one out should score. It seems like we have been terrible at moving runners up a base for at least 15 years.

As a Pirates fan, assuming the team is good enough to extend anyone to 10, that's a huge concern because they can be comically bad at turning opportunities into scores. Yesterday had this comically bad inning where they had bases loaded and no one out and only got one run out of it. Because Wainwright walked in a guy -- they sure as hell didn't do anything proactive to get on the board. Some teams just, for whatever reason(s) don't get things done in those situations. I know...
Franmil and DomSan with RBI hits and The Tribe lead 2-0 after one.
Lindor with an RBI double. Tribe up 4-0 after 3.
Royals score 1 in top of the 4th and JRAM hits a 3 run bomb in the bottom of the 4th. Tribe up 7-1.
Carrasco looks good
I know that it is against bad pitching today, but it is still nice to see the offense have some success.
