Tribe up 6-2 after 7.

Just got out of a bases loaded jam.

Masterson didn't have his best stuff, but he still battled and held them to 2. Somebody really taught these kids how to pitch.

I feel like every time I look up Brantley is on base. That kid can play.

Love the approach at the plate tonight. They didn't get frustrated even though Hochevar had great stuff for 5 innings. They kept after it and eventually they got to him.

As a fun little aside, for those who didn't know, Indians bullpen coach Scott Radinsky has been the vocalist for SoCal melodic punk rock band Pulley since they were formed in 1994, and fronted SoCal hardcore band Ten Foot Pole before that.

LOL

He's gonna hear it from his bullpen mates. However, doesn't it always seem like a guy comes in with no pressure and winds up putting pressure on himself.

Good to see our timely hitting continue.

Sipp was just channeling his inner Wickman and Borowski. He wanted Perez to add to his save count for the season.

Neat trivia! I have Ten Foot Pole in my collection - didn't know about Pulley; have to check them out. Thanks!

I'm a huge fan of 80's/early 90's punk. Some of my favorites are Descendents, Minor Threat, and Dag Nasty. Also like the mellower stuff like fIREHOSE and Minutemen...don't want to turn this into a music thread, so.....

Go Tribe! What a great start to the season!!!!!

edit
Sweet - Pulley has all kinds of songs on Grooveshark...I know what I'll be listening to at work and in the car tomorrow. Love the song you have in the youtube video above....

I dont think the hitting has reached its potential yet.

I'm wondering if mgmt. would pull the trigger on a pitcher at the deadline if one, someone interesting is there and two, if its deemed we could use the help for the stretch/playoffs?

shapiro was never willing to part with anything in the system, let's see if antonetti is willing to roll the dice.

i always compared shapiro to the guy in checkers who never moves the back row.

I would make a trade if it was sensible.

With labor uncertainty, I certainly wouldn't trade the house for a 35 year old pitcher on a 2 month rental.

We have a great minor league system, and I certainly wouldn't hesitate to trade for a guy if we were in position to win it all ...... but to make a trade just for the sake of making a trade ..... well, I don't think this team will go down that road.

Antonetti is on record saying that if we are in contention this year we will be buyers.

Now, he didn't say what that would entail. It could be another cheap 'buy' like 2007 (though Kenny Lofton did help spur our run and getting rid of Max Ramirez is why Shapiro demanded Carlos Santana later).

Or it could be something more (we have the lowest payroll we have had in years and a winning season will mean higher attendance)

Man .... how much rain do we play on in?

Doesn't seem to matter to Tomlin. He just keeps mowing them down.

Congratulations to Josh Tomlin for being the 1st pitcher in Cleveland Indians history to go at least 5 innings in every one of his 1st 16 starts. (He keeps adding to his own record)

This is the kinda game Sipp is used to.

I honestly think that he doesn't know how to pitch with a big lead.

Big of a rough outing again for Sipp.

He damn near walked both guys he faced, and did walk one.

On comes Vinnie Pestano. I like this kid. (knock on wood)

Nice play to save a run and the lead for now.

Sizemore with his 3rd hit of the night, a 2 out double.

Chad Huffman, an outfielder with the Indians AAA Columbus team went 4-5 tonight, with 3 HR and 9 RBI.

It's a shame to waste such a great start by Tomlin.

Walks, walk, and more walks after none in the 1st 7 innings. That's a killer.

Took 2 of 4 from the 2nd place team in our division. I guess that's not too bad .......

We really wasted this game tonight though.
