Looks like Detroit lost; a win here means only percentage points behind.

Danks called out on strikes.

Flowers fans.

But De Aza singles.

And Masty hits Ramirez with a pitch.

He stays in to pitch to Alex Rios:

Ball one. Called strike. Foul. Ball evens the count at 2-2.

Called STRIKE THREE.

Graphics please.

Here ya go:

Is there a four-broom one?

We win! Sweep!

Last 4-game Tribe sweep in Chicago was 1948. that was a a good year for the Indians!

.........................................SWEEP!!!

Much obliged.

Great sweep!

I saw Hagadone in the bullpen I thought he had been sent down and had to wait 10 days, someone enlighten me as I have it wrong somewhere.

As to Lonnie Chisenhall, I notice he is a sucker for swinging hard at the outside pitch which is a piece of cake for a lefty thrower. He needs to take a page out of the Kipnis book and go with that pitch. I would have him be thrown outside pitches in practice until he got it down. Seems harder now for him since they want him to keep his hands down and in towards the body.

Last time the Indians had a 4-game sweep over the Chisox was 1995. Last time they did it in Chicago was 1948. Both pretty good years for the Tribe!

Don't know how Hagadone could have come back... Someone on the DL?

Apparently he's up to replace Bourne who is on pregnancy leave:

CHICAGO -- The Cleveland Indians placed outfielder Michael Bourn on the three-day paternity list on Sunday and recalled left-handed reliever Nick Hagadone from Triple-A Columbus.

Bourn, who headed to Houston after Saturday's game to be with his wife, will be eligible to return to the roster on Wednesday. Bourn has a .347 on-base percentage as the Indians primary lead-off hitter.

Hagadone is 0-1 with 5.40 ERA in 25 innings pitched.

Thanks Civ.
