Tonight, Trevor Bauer will face off against Chris Young as the Indians arrive in Seattle.  Safeco Field is a gem of a ballpark with some of the best food options I’ve seen; but it also has a cavernous outfield and is a pitcher’s park.  The Tribe left Phoenix on a high note; let’s hope they can keep it rolling in the Pacific Northwest.

    Stolen base with two outs turns into a run because Yan Gomes cannot get the ball out of his glove. Wow.

    Jeff Juden?

  • Stephanie Liscio says:

    I want to make every guess for every trivia question from now until the end of time “Bill Selby.” Whether it’s applicable or not.

    • Sean Porter says:

      If you do, I promise to answer Felix Fermin and/or Junior Ortiz. 🙂

      • Stephanie Liscio says:

        I sadly used to love both Fermin and Ortiz. I guess they go along with my Ronnie Belliard model of weird players to love.

  • SeattleStu says:

    Bauer dealing at the Safe…nervous about having him out there at 110+ pitches….

  • Gvl Steve says:

    Good one. Rick White wore #0 while pitching for the Indians in 2004.

    I’m assuming Ryan Raburn doesn’t count, despite pitching one inning last year while wearing #9.

    • Ryan McCrystal says:

      Yeah, I guess Rick White is sort of a secondary bonus answer. Since he wore 00.

      And Raburn’s a good bonus answer also. Just looked it up, and even including position players, Raburn was the first single digit number on the mound since Juden.

    I hate Francisco Rodney’s showboating.

  • SeattleStu says:

    put your hat on straight you idiot.

  • Sean Porter says:

    Winner winner chicken dinner! I might as well enjoy this one, since I’ll never get one again, unless of course the answer is Felix Fermin and/or Junior Ortiz… haha
