Think the Indians' bull pen will be glad to be out of Cincinnati?

So in Bruce's 4 AB's tonight, he has swung at the first pitch 3 times and made an out each time. In the 4th AB he took 3 balls, swung at the 3-0 and 3-1 before walking. Nice patience

Didn't your parents teach you the difference between couldn't and wasn't?

Do you even have parents?

He is and can hit lefties.

I live in an area with a lot of Tribe fans, and the ones I know universally curse Eric Wedge every time Brandon Phillips is mentioned.

He made contact each time, once on a scorching line drive.

Those aren't bad odds if you believe in BABIP.

Swinging at the first pitch and missing badly is a bad thing. Swinging and putting it in play is not so bad.
