Alfonso Soriano hit his 53rd leadoff home run to tie Craig Biggio for second all-time.

 

[Rios15]

Yup I heard about that, he's a great lead off man. He seems to get injured a lot though.

Indians flirting with the worst record in the league. There is a time where you just have to turn it around or else your going to have to play .600 ball the rest of the way through.

 

[Rios15]

Yeah definitely not looking good for the Indians so far, they also started off bad last season than towards the end they started winning. The American League Central is a hard division to pick the winner of, I'm not sure who is going to win that division.

If we can get guys who can shut the door consistently in the 7th and 8th inning we'd be over .500 <_<

But thats the point, they are so packed together that you cant fall behind in that division.

Twins, White Sox, Tigers, Royals. They all are playing hard and they are beating up on each other. In that division it will come down to the best pitching staff. You can tell.

Thank you Dodgers for beating the Phillies, we will still be in 1st place.

Oh, and today, the Indians scored double the runs they had given Lee in his past 4 starts.

That is the guy the Indians most likely will call up, and try in the bull pen, or at least should try him.

Tigers in a 9 all tie, Top of 11th.

 

[Mexi]

yes Dodgers, what a game!

Wolf had 8 K's
James Loney finally went deep and had 4 RBI.
looking good.

Tomorrow's pitching match-up looks to be sexy.
Hamels vs. Billingsley
Bills is fired up about facing the Phils, I can't wait
10 o'clock is mighty early for me, but oh well

Great game by the Yanks last night, the Jays easy schedule so far is about to take a turn for the worse.

 

[Gtown81]

[cruzg24]

Mets start series tonight against the Giants. Maine pitching tonight and I know he's going to pitch well.

I would hope he does against that AA lineup.

 

[cruzg24]

I would hope he does against that AA lineup.

Who are you guys playing?

 

[HTF]

Who are you guys playing?

The D-Backs, we got a weak schedule aside from the Blue Jays for the rest of the month, we need to put up a lot of W's in this stretch.

Yeah... Keep dreaming. Yankees are missing the playoffs, sorry.

 

[VC15]

Yeah... Keep dreaming. Jays are definitely missing the playoffs, sorry.

Jhonny Peralta making his first start at 3rd base this season, and 2nd start there in his career, and that's most likely where you will see him next year, starting at 3rd base with Asdrubal Cabrera at SS and Luis Valbuena at 2B.
