Joe Nuxhall Memorial Honorary Star of the Game
Jeremy "Whiskey" Sowers. The committed Vanderbilt man gave up two runs over seven innings, while the Reds' offense put the "commode" in "commodore."
Key Plays
- The Indians scored a bunch in the middle innings. Harang wasn't particularly sharp, and the Tribe hit a bunch of homers off of him. There was a Brandon Phillips error in there somewhere too, and the Indians score more runs after that.
- Jonny Gomes and Willy Taveras drove in runs. That's two games in a row that's happened.
Just the link to the FanGraph today. Although if you go there, it's interesting to note that the game was decided by the sixth inning, and even when the Reds scored two runs after that, it made no dent in their probability of winning the game.
Other Notes
- I'm gonna be honest. This game was blowful, so I drifted out pretty early on and watched a lot of episodes of Season 2 of How I Met Your Mother. Marshall and Lily are a lot better characters when they're together than when they were apart.
