The Indians are pretty hot again. This time, they are even overcoming some pretty bad starting pitching on occasion. They just pummeled the White Sox 19-10 in the first game of a double header then scored 4 runs in the ninth for a pretty unbelieveable comeback win 9-8 in the second game of it. Then they came from behind yesterday and won 4-3. They are winning every way possible. The split they had with the Orioles is the only series they haven't won in like a month or more.
Jason Kipnis has been red hot for the whole last month or so. He leads all of MLB in average at like .450, leads in stolen bases and is first or second in RBI and several other stats for the month of June. He has, also, reached base in like 25+ straight games.
I believe he pretty much just said he's not taken PED's before right?
Neither did A-Rod, Lance, Sosa, Bonds, McGwire, Palmeiro, Giambi, Jones, etc...
Haters gonna hate.
Pretty impressive turnaround for the Red Sox.
From chicken and beer and being pathetic to top dogs.
The Rays have been on an incredible run but such excellence doesn't last an entire season. I am looking for them to get back to earth sometime in the next couple of weeks.
I'm shocked Ortiz wasn't suspended for that little stint. Actually, no I'm not. Typical for Bud Selig. If Ortiz was some no-name player on the Milwaukee Brewers baseball team, he'd be suspended.
Suspend him for what?
That jackass umpire totally screwed him over. I think everyone saw that and empathized with Ortiz, hell even the Orioles Broacasting people were like what, that's a strike?
Totally threw Ortiz off his rhythm.
They should send Ortiz the bill for the damaged his cost to that poor telephone but nothing more.

And BAM!
They have lost 4 games in a row. Red Sox won tonight so lead back up 3.
It's over - Red Sox will win the division.
Wow you're severly overestimating the supreme and uncanny ability of the Red Sox meltdowns and colapses.
Far too many games to be handing out division titles.
Rays are falling apart and the O's are too inconsistent on pitching.
The great thing about the Red Sox is that they're always susceptible to a choke job.
