Record: 22-11
Standing: First in the AL Central
I'm more upset with the team than I should be right now and that's because of a tough luck loss we had today. The Angels managed to get all the little bounces going their way and some tactical errors on our end led to a frustrating defeat. But on the positive side, we managed to go .500 on the road trip, which is exactly what I wanted us to do when I previewed this West Coast trip last week. The Indians faced some tough pitching this past week and we're in every game. I like how this team isn't giving up in games, which makes them exciting until the very end. And after an off day tomorrow, the Indians come back home to play and see if they can continue to build on their 13-game win streak at Progressive Field. It should be interesting as they'll be taking on a couple of teams who have been surging as of late - the Tampa Bay Rays and the Seattle Mariners. We've proven we can play well against Seattle already, but Tampa is more of a mystery. We'll be facing more tough starting pitching from them, but we've played well against them in the past, so hopefully that continues again here. Maybe if we do well, we can finally get some national recognition for our success. Then again, maybe it's better if we don't have the national spotlight on us. No need to put an unnecessary target on our backs. Whatever happens, you know I'll continue watching. Go Tribe!!
