2 pitches gets hendriks the win. shoulda gone to keuchel tho.

Sad when a starting pitcher throws a solid game, then gets nothing for it.

Yeah, it was nice to see Cleveland catching the suddenly hot Orioles, who have now won 3 straight after dropping their previous 14 in a row.

hard game to watch but at least a happy ending.

Answer: Anderson, Abreu, Mercedes, Madrigal, Vaughn

Question: Alex, who are some of the players with lower OPS% than Yasmani Grandal?

Intangible!

Ahhhh, memories of '83.

Same manager even

A scary win for a team that blew a gimme lead. Heuer and Marshall, who were both pitching so well of late, reverted to their previous selves. It was the worst performance by our pen in quite a while.

Au contraire the middle relief sucked but the set up guy and closer were nails in a close game.

Winning Ugly.

I mean...LaRussa is back coaching this team 40 freaking years after his first go round. Sorry, he's too damn old.

Wasn't Gene Lamont available?

Correct. I wasn't really trying to blame every pitcher out of the pen tonight, just generalizing that after a number of solid games they've collectively pitched, tonight was not good at all.

Wow, Vaughn is already back on the team. Wouldn't surprise me if he's out there today.

Are we witnessing the beginning of Grandal’s turnaround? He’s been hitting an unheard of .123 BABIP - sooner or later that’s going to go up.

The story is Grandal's right knee couldn't support the torque of his power swing from the left side - most of the season, but the knee has come around and now Grandal's power stroke is back when he bats lefty.

The unis look good to me. Unlike the Red Sox unis - when you look at these they still look like White Sox uniforms. I thing I don't like is Southside as one word like it was a city - when the South Side of Chicago is a place in Chicago.

gio served that up like a big fat nothing ball
