Open Thread - Game 125: Indians (68-55) at Tigers (67-57)

Fausto Carmona (14-7, 3.16) vs. Jair Jurrjens (0-1, 5.14), 7:05 p.m. EST

Cleveland
K. Lofton LF  
C. Blake 3B
G. Sizemore CF  
V. Martinez C
T. Hafner DH  
R. Garko 1B
T. Nixon RF  
J. Peralta SS
A. Cabrera 2B

Detroit
C. Granderson CF  
P. Polanco 2B  
G. Sheffield DH  
M. Ordonez RF  
C. Guillen SS  
I. Rodriguez C
S. Casey 1B
M. Thames LF  
R. Raburn 3B

Raburn gets the start ahead of Inge at third (which was foreshadowed yesterday), Polanco finally comes back after a bout with the flu and Maybin gets the day off.

The suprising Carmona is 2-0 against the Tigers this year with a 3.86 ERA.  His last start overall came against Detroit -- a 5-2 Indians win -- with him pitching eight innings and only giving up four hits.  In that game he was opposed by Jurrjens, who was making his first major league start.

Please, hitting soon Tigers
No-Hit Ball from both through 3 Innings. Keep my fingers crossed that our batters will come through and the pitching will keep control

Back To Back HR, that's what we needed against Carmona and  Jair is great so far.

Wow, fantastic. Great Pitching, great Bullpen. Only 1 hit against this lineup (ok, we had only 3 and Carmona needed only 77 Pitches through 8 Innings, but we won)

Good Night from Germany (it's 3 am here ;) ) I'll sleep good tonight
