Day 3 tribe vs White Sox
Highlights- homer fest for the Sox
Tomlin on the mound- gave up 4 homers
Abreu hit one
Jacob May hit one - not a bad reserve or 1 dollar flyer
Indians took the lead and had a 7 - 6 lead with bases loaded and 2 outs - Danny Hayes hit a Grand slam homer
For the tribe:
Linder return
Brantly still looking healthy
Bradly Zimmer ripped one off the wall for 2 rbi triple
Abe Almonte came in and had a single- continue being my �� Dark horse flyer player
Carlos Santana rips a homer
Still no Andrew Miller
Tomorrow first non tribe game.
Angels and Royals - hopefully a Trout siting!!!!
Angels - Royals
Raul mondasi is very fast...
Mike trout is a stud.
Albert looks a little rolly-Polly but he still stole a base.
Billy Burns looks like he is 12
Angels have no pitching
I can't understand (esp in spring training) why lefties who come up don't figure a way to hit it to left. Almost every lefty I saw come up just had to poke or bunt down the 3 rd base way and they would have a hit if not a double. They could hit 500 if they could figure that out.
Angel stadium no extra for fans. No music, no mascot, no in between inning contest a big fat Zip.

Bunting fair and not straight back to the pitcher against major league pitching isn't an easy task, but yes, with practice, I agree with you. Although once they demonstrate that they can do that, teams will keep the third baseman home.

That kind of my point. I would be pissed if I faced a shift ALL the time I would make them pay . Hosmer has been the only one I have seen hit one to left. Today early in the game Calhoun was up with runner on first and the third baseman was deep and way off the line I can't believe a ML player can't just push one down that way. Do it enough time the book woul be play him straight up.
I saw Carlos Santana rip a ball between Second and first just to have the real second basemen who was playing a short right field throw him out.
Quick question - why not more night games at spring training . I think I know the answer but have a bet with my siblings. It is much cooler and nice to watch the game at night then in the blazing heat of the day.
Just got back from the tribe - Cubs game. This time around most of the players played.
No Brantly but I didn't really expect it.
Lester vs Salazar. Both look good
Lester had 1 bad inning compounded by his not being able to hold anyone on( Ed Perez stole a base on him)
Salazar look good vs everyone except Contreras the catcher who hit 2 homers off him.
Had an Andrew miller sighting - mowed down Bryant , Rizzo and Baez in his inning of work.
