Indians @ A's 5/12/07

Casey just singled up the middle to drive in the 2nd run for the Tribe.

I've talked around it before, but it seems to me that Casey is turning it up and I have to believe it's because he's playing 3rd every day. He's hitting .240 now, which is nearly 40 points better than when he took over that job. AND he's driving runs in.

Wild pitch means two runners in scoring position for Franklin Gutierrez.

We've got five hits so far, which is a good sign. I tend to give Wedge grief over his constant micro-managing of the line-up, but sitting Pronk was probably a good idea.

TWO RUNS SCORE!! Chavez made a great play, but his eyes were bigger than his stomach -- no way he could get an out there, all he could have hoped for was saving a run, and then he caused two to score.

Back to the point, mixing up the bats seems to have worked.

Fausto had some problems in the first, but he's throwing more strikes than balls, so that looks good.

WTAM guys are right -- we need Grady to pick it up. Speaking of which, I need to track down a Sports Illustrated today.
