Cleveland at Detroit 5/22/02 P: Finley vs. Weaver
Score: Tigers 2 - Indians 0 WP: Weaver LP: Finley
BASEBALLS TO:
Jeff Weaver: Excellent! He pitched a complete game shutout striking out 11 and only giving up one hit. He had a no hitter for 7 2/3 innings. Our hitters were totally mystified. I was very impressed that he didn't lose his composure after giving up the hit. No temper tantrum on the mound today folks. He handled it very well.
Dmitri Young: A single and an RBI.
Matt Walbeck: A single and a sac fly for an RBI.
Chuck Finley: You pitched a very good complete game also. Too bad with our batters (I won't call it offense) you have to be perfect.
Russell Branyan: That was an excellent throw from left field to the plate to get Jackson at home in the 8th inning.
Chris Magruder: What a debut! Our only hit today! He hit a ball that bounced off the wall in right for a double. In Jacobs field it would have been a home run as well as the one he hit in the first inning that was caught in center field. Hmmm.....maybe we need a few more rookies.
GOOFBALLS TO:
Chris Truby: Committed an error in the 2nd. He misplayed the hop on a ball Burks hit allowing Burks to get to first base.
Indians Batters: It'd be nice if you guys show up once in a while.
SAD BUT TRUE:
The Tribe was just swept by the lowly Detroit Tigers. We didn't even have to face Steve Sparks this time. If we can't look forward to playing Detroit anymore who can we look forward to? We haven't even played the good teams yet and the schedule is getting tougher. If this continues we'll have to break out the brown bags to hide our faces.
