The San Francisco Giants have the Cleveland Indians number as they once again beat the Indians. The Indians lost 4-1 and have now dropped the first two games of the three game series with the Giants. The Indians will now have to win on Thursday to avoid an embaressing three game sweep in the series.
Jeremy Sowers pitched seven inning but gave up nine hits and three runs. Five walks really hurt Sowers in the game and also a home run that he gave up. Sowers is now 0-3 on the season. When will Sowers get in the win column? Maybe we should run some sort of contest!
Rafael Betancourt served up a solo home run in the eighth inning as he pitched one inning in the game. It was an insurance run that you never want to see the opposing team get as it makes it that much tougher for your team to come back in the game. Joe Borowski got an inning of action in the ninth inning and pitched a scoreless inning.
Shin-Soo Choo had a rbi single in the seventh inning that scored Kelly Shoppach. That was the only run for the Indians in the game. It is hard to score runs when you only have six hits in the game and did not hit a home run.
So will the Indians avoid the three game sweep on Thursday against the Giants? I’ll have to take the home town Indians in that bet. What do you think leave us a comment!
