The word is out that Choo will bail out on his swing if he gets crowded inside,that’s why he’s getting hit and brushed back in every at bat.
Having a milk toast manager who won’t tell his pitchers to protect his hitters is part of the problem as well.

It would be nice to sweep the series and get back to .500.

You get a lot of games with one or two big innings and nothing for the rest of the game. I like those just as much as popping in a run here and another one there over the course of the game. I think what made me happy about this game (other than the win) is that we managed to put together a series of meaningful hits, which hasn’t really happened yet this season (and was one of our downfalls last season). I was starting to wonder if the Indians remembered that you can score runs through base hits, not just homers.

I’m very glad about the win and the explosion in the first inning, but I did not have that “everything finally came together” feeling. This game felt much like the others because we had seven innings in the middle of the games with zero runs and only one or two hits. The explosion came off a pitcher who might have been a little too jacked about the home opener and left pitches high and over the plate in the first inning. Even though we lost, the game against Danks felt much better offensively.
