Shag on Sports Oh no. Not Again.
  • 5/9: Indians 6, Toronto 1, CC Sabathia gives up 1 run through 7 innings.
  • 5/10: Indians 12, Toronto 0, Aaron Laffey pitches 7 shutout innings.
  • 5/12 Game 1: Indians 3, Toronto 0, Fausto Carmona pitches 9 shutout innings.
  • 5/12 Game 2: Toronto 3, Indians 0 (10), Cliff Lee pitches 9 shutout innings, Rafael Betancourt bites it.
  • 5/13: Indians 4, Oakland 0. Paul Byrd pitches 7 1/3 shutout innings.
  • 5/14: Indians 3, Oakland 0. CC Sabathia pitches 9 shutout innings.

Do the math, that’s 43 1/3 consecuitive shutout innings by Tribe Starters. At this rate, just hand them the AL Central. The Tigers won’t be bothering them.

UPDATE: The A’s scored in the second inning off of Aaron Laffey, although the only reason Bobby Crosby scored was because of a throwing error… by… Aaron… Laffey… You know what, I would have given him the benefit of the doubt if someone else committed the error, but that’s just some bull.
