Nice defensive play by Santana pouncing from behind the plate to barehand a squibbed ball and throw hard to first for the out.

Tribe Fans in the stands show some life as Tomlin has 2 strikes on the batter with 2 out in the 7th......

But two runs score on a deep double.


Fans should have stayed quiet.

The guy we issued a free pass to put the force in play came around as the 2nd run.

Tomlin still deserves a win here. That was just the 4th hit he surrendered.

Tomlin, let's get this 3rd out.


Our best innings are before us.


And there it is.


We have 9 outs to work with, including our famous 8th and 9th......

(someone needs to work with Carrera on getting his instincts down to take the best path to the ball........he looked like "Billy" in Family Circus getting to that one)

LaPorta tattooed it to la left!


2-1

Sabathia back on the mound in New York at 66 pitches in the 6th......


And Sabathia is perfect through 6.


And it's raining again in The Bronx.

Tomlin gets 'em 1-2-3 on just a handful of pitches in the 8th.

Carrera, and the top of the order for us.


edit....

Kearns to PH for Carrera.

I might have liked chances with Carrera trying to bunt for a base hit, but we'll see.

Kearns easily walks as the leadoff man, so it worked out OK.

Ichiro facing Sabathia with the perfect game in place.

Go Ichiro....

Seven Angels, perhaps a few Spanish, converge to converse on the mound in Cleveland.

And Sabathia K's Ichiro to add to his double digit total.

Sabathia is smokin' and dialed in.

No no, Nanette.

Perfecto is busto.....


Ryan expressed the first hit for The Mariners with a Texas Leaguer to short center.
