When you can't keep the sinker down in the zone, you're pretty much throwing batting practice, as Fausto Carmona found out last night, giving up 8 runs to the Athletics in 1 inning+. His ERA on the night - 72.00, with a WHIP of 9.00.
The Tribe never recovered from their early pummeling, as last week's staff of the Buffalo Bisons (Jason Stanford and Eddie Mujica) gave up 5 more, for a total of 13 runs for the Athletics. The Indians got 7 of them back, but it was all too little too late.
Pronk hit a solo shot, his only hit in a 1 for 4 evening. Gutierrez, Peralta and Blake also went yard for the Tribe.
Next up - get up early and do it again today - Noon start time today on getaway day, Blanton vs. Byrd.
