That was fun while it lasted

Well, the Indians got out of last place for exactly one day. The Royals totally dominated the Tribe last night, as Gil Meche struck out 11 in seven shutout innings and Carl Pavano had his worst start in months on the way to a 9-0 loss at Progressive Field. Pavano gave up all nine runs on 11 hits — including three homers — in 4 2/3 innings.

But on the plus side, the same fan in left field caught two home runs in the same inning. Unfortunately, they were both off Royal bats.

The Tribe will try to salvage the series tonight, with Jeremy Sowers going against early Cy Young front-runner Zack Greinke. Yeah, I don't see it happening.
