The Columbus Crew saw its six-game unbeaten streak end on Wednesday night, with a 2-0 loss at the hands of the New England Revolution at Gillette Stadium. A second half goal by Dimitry Imbongo followed by a Crew own goal proved to be enough for the home team to come away victorious and snap its […]

September 6, 2012 by
The Indians were defeated, 7-1, in the series finale at Comerica Park on Wednesday night, but it did not reflect how well starter Ubaldo Jimenez pitched. “If you weren’t here or [don’t] pay attention to it and see the box score, you probably don’t think it was a good game,” manager Manny Acta said. “But […]
Phillies Beat Reds 6-2
September 6, 2012 by
Sure, the Reds and their fans could enjoy having Joey Votto back in the lineup on Wednesday. But Votto would always say that the game is bigger than one player’s contribution, and that was proven in spades vs. the Phillies. Votto was 2-for-3 in his return, but Reds starter Mike Leake had a terribly brief […]

Indians Down Tigers 3-2
September 5, 2012 by
The Indians might just be the Tigers’ Achilles’ heel this season. Entering Tuesday’s game, the Indians were 2-18 in their last 20 road games. They hadn’t won a series since taking two of three from Detroit on July 24-26. And they hadn’t won a series outside of Progressive Field since a four-game series on June […]
Reds Beat Phillies 2-1
September 5, 2012 by
For the first time in about six weeks, the Reds had Joey Votto off of the disabled list and at their disposal. Manager Dusty Baker only considered Votto available to pinch-hit in case of an emergency. On a tear of late, Jay Bruce made sure his team didn’t need Votto. It was Bruce’s two-run home […]

Indians Beat Tigers 3-2
September 4, 2012 by
The Tribe went a perfect 4-for-4 in steals as they consistently put the pressure on Detroit’s pitching staff, despite no extra-base hits in the game. As a result, the Indians scratched across three runs to edge the Tigers, 3-2, at Comerica Park on Labor Day and give pitcher Corey Kluber his first Major League victory. […]
Phillies Beat Reds 4-2
September 4, 2012 by
Reds ace Johnny Cueto rarely gives up home runs, let alone two. Cueto had never lost during the daytime this season. He also doesn’t like to be burned when the opposing pitcher is batting. Even Cy Young Award contenders can come up short, as Cueto did during the Reds’ 4-2 loss to the Phillies in […]
