Indians
You just sort of figured the Indians game was over Tuesday when the Tribe brought in David Riske. Riske hadn't pitched in nine games, and it wasn't because Eric Wedge was resting him for the playoffs.
The Indians have had an amazing run of late, but I think the loss of Arthur Rhodes really hurts them. If Rhodes were with the team, he would have started the seventh last night, Howry would have pitched the eighth, and Bob Wickman, after getting two guys on, would have finished the win.
Bobby Howry has been the best Indians setup man since Mike Jackson, but Arthur Rhodes was just as good.

Casey Blake
Just a couple of stats for the day. Casey Blake (who hit a homer last night) is hitting .165 this season with runners in scoring position. With runners in scoring position and two outs, he is hitting 3 for 54 (.056)
