Blake Buries Sox


The Cleveland Indians started off the 2008 campaign with a not so typical 10-8 win over the Chicago White Sox. C.C. Sabathia struggled through 5 1/3 innings, the middle relief was less than perfect, and JoBo was Jobo, surrendering a homerun and a walk in the 9th. The results proved successful, as the Indians did all of their scoring in two innings. The Tribe exploded for 7 runs in the second, and 3 runs in the fifth. Franklin Gutierrez had 3 hits and a 3 run homerun, while Casey Blake stroked a bases-clearing 3 run double high off the leftfield wall with 2 outs in the eighth. Victor Martinez left the game in the third with an apparent hamstring pull and will be listed as day to day. The Indians will finish March in first place with a 1-0 record.
