Check it out!
The Cleveland Indians are in fourth place for the first time all year!
HERE WE COME DIVISION TITLE!
It looked like death after the top of the sixth inning, but after the bottom of that inning, something weird happened.
In probably the most oddest scoring sequence I've ever seen, the Tribe put up four runs in an inning with no RBI hits, two errors, and a few run-producing outs.
Choo gets the bases loaded with nobody out and hits into a fielders choice with an error somewhere in there. One out
The Indians get the bases loaded again with nobody out for the man they call Pronk. If you are following me on twitter, I'm not sure why you would be, then you would have seen me asking Pronk to visit Pronkville.
Yeah that isn't happened.. Hafner hits one to first and I'm automatically thinking the worst possible thing, double play.
But Miguel Olivo does something, the throw sucks, blah blah, we've got ourselves a run off an error, bases still loaded, outs still at zero.
Then Jhonny Peralta comes in after a Kelly Shoppach sac-fly that was inches away from being a grand-slam and gets yet another fielders choice, the game is all tied up at four with the Indians four runs coming in the most ridiculous ways.
Which makes perfect sense that the Indians would hit a grand-slam in the seventh inning, right?
Mark DeRosa empties the bucket and gives the Indians a four-run lead. Kerry Wood comes in and gets another four-run save. In other words, he didn't get a save, but pitched in yet another four run game because he can't get in three-run or less games.
Cliff Lee was a little better than the stats indicate. Stuff went wrong in the sixth after he recorded the first two outs in quick manner, some defensive issues and silly hits let two more runs scored. A Kelly Shoppach error that sucked was big, they double stealed and basically ran rampant on Kelly and everything.
Overall, Cliff wasn't bad, he won't get the win, but at least he didn't get the loss after Shoppach's crap.
The Indians still didn't really solve Brian Bannister, but at least they got him out of the game quick enough to get to the bullpen.
The new chopping mechanism that is Luis Vizcaino, Rafael Perez, and Matt Herges get through two innings scoreless, Kerry Wood gets that ninth we talked about and woohoo we in fourth place!
And as I type this, the Indians are just two and a half games out of second place, really now?
Yes.. Tomorrow, the series continues with the man that is Carl Pavano against Gil Meche. Come on siiiiirs!
