And as I type, Chiz doubles and Kipnis scores. 1-0 Tribe.

Hafner takes nine swipes at the ball and pops out to short on the tenth pitch to him. Odorizzi at 42 pitches after one inning.

What's with Kipnis? Looks at 2 - 90 mph fastballs, then pops up with 2 men on 2nd and 3rd. No runs scored. Odorizzi at 63 pitches after 2.
I wonder if this game is Hafners swan song for the Tribe (which would mean for all of mlb, IMO)

Gomez loosing it in the third. Can't seem to find the strike zone. He finally finds it with a 78 mph slowball and butler singles and drives in a run. Game tied 1-1.

A double and a homer and the Tribe is down 1-6. Maybe Gomez don't have it today, ya think?   |

4th inning. Lilibridge gets another single and steals another base, but dies on third as the tribe can't seem to complete the package. No runs scored. Still 1-6.

Bottom 6. Travis hit by pitch and scores on an error. Wonder if he gets one more AB, or is that it?

Pestano pitches a masterful 10th. Tribe coming to bat. Too bad I am not able to watch the game, but can only follow it on MLB Gameday.

I didn't want Tribecat to think he was the only one staying up late drinking. Besides Alomar's record as a manager is flawless, so the Tribe has this in the bag. |

Tommy Hotboy is mowing down the Tribe batters. 41 pitches. I wonder how long he can go...

Might be time to call it quits on the drinking for the evening.

Actually, it is only 8 PM out west, here. And this is a pretty entertaining game. I hope MLB TV has all the highlights later.
