and they have liked it. Actually, they have loved it. But torturing their old manager is twice the fun.
Just a quick 14 hours after dispatching King Felix Hernandez, the Wahoos took their shots at Hector Noesi. It seemed like a relatively easy task, considering how they handled Hernandez a night earlier. For the first six innings however, the Tribe offense looked like they normally do on these getaway day, putrid. Since the beginning of last year, the Indians had lost nine of their 10 weekday afternoon home games and were outscored 65-26. Their lone win was a 1-0 shutout of the Red Sox last April.
Noesi held the Indians to scoreless into the seventh on just five hits. After giving up an infield single to Casey Kotchman, Noesi K’d Jose Lopez. Strangely, out of the dugout came Eric Wedge to get Noesi, despite the fact that he was in complete control. He had made 101 pitches. But Wedge most likely figured he had gotten way more out of Noesi than he expected and he had two lefties at his disposal. Lucas Luetge and his 0.00 ERA was first. He struck out Shin-Soo Choo but then walked Jason Kipnis, moving Kotchman to second. Asdrubal Cabrera would drive Kotchman in to put the Tribe on the board. They still trailed 4-1.
