Four outs. Anytime that you give the opposing team four outs in an inning, you pay for it. So, in the top of the ninth inning when Nick Swisher and Jason Kipnis failed to communicate properly on a first-pitch pop-up off the bat of Anthony Rendon that...

The Indians are in a rut. A deep rut. And it extends to every portion of the team—the offense, the defense, the starting pitching, and the bullpen. Each had a helping hand in Arlington last night as the Rangers dropped another loss on the Tribe, th...

I don’t know what it is. The mystique of the pinstripes. The overwhelming feeling of playing in the Bronx. The 26 World Series flags that fly. Whatever the case may be, the Indians have always seemed to struggle against the New York Yankees. La...

As you’ll certainly note, this is neither a TD-recap nor a live-blog recap, which means we’re treading in dangerous, deep and foreign waters. In an attempt at brevity and concision, allow me the crude crutch of numerically ordering my thoughts on...

Remember back just eight short days ago heading into the night-cap of the double-header in Kansas City, the Indians looked completely lost. They were sunk. They couldn’t hit. The couldn’t get any semblance of quality starting pitching o...

Scott Kazmir earned his first victory in three seasons, Nick Swisher homered in his first at-bat since missing three games with a sore shoulder and the Cleveland Indians beat Minnesota 7-3 Saturday for their sixth straight victory.
