While you hate to pile on ewad and this year's Pittsburgh franchise, Cleveland's offensive outburst against the Diamond Kings was sick. With wins of 11-3, 29-2, 21-9 and 27-9, the Wahoos posted 88 runs and only surrendered 23.
Javy Moya had a monstrous game during the 2/6 AM 27-9 win. The centerfielder, who bats ninth, was 6-6 with five runs scored, three dingers and 12 RBI.
Speaking of 2/6 AM cycle, one has to feel bad as Luis Vega (125 pitches) and Brian McCormick (126) surrendered all 27 runs (only 25 were earned) in 6.2 innings. Two cycles prior (the 29-2 game) McCormick threw 126 pitches, walking 10, in 3.1 innings. Not bad for an 86 stamina starter. I almost want to misappropriate some money, help ewad sign a new staff and show him how to set rest settings.
In the meantime, Pittsburgh has lost six straight, including the PM cycle's 14-12 matchup against Milwaukee. Incidentally, McCormick threw 92 pitches in four innings of relief.
Anyhow, I promised a Nerio Watch. Nerio hit home runs in each game of the series, giving him 22 on the season. Nerio has 127 at-bats, meaning he'll jack a pitch once every 5.77 at bats.
