Great to see the much missed hitting with RISP return. It can stay as long as it wants to.

It's not just us with guys coming back to haunt, I guess.

What was Laporta's injury?

What was Laporta's injury?

Rolled his ankle in a rundown probably a high ankle sprain or maybe worse. I expect him to be on the DL tomorrow. He couldn't put any weight on it.

I so love it when we take the first game in a series. And the second...and the third...

Nicely done Tribe! Win one tomorrow too! Heck, take 'em all. Beat Pukesburg.

Kinda wondering if he Jason Donald-ed himself with that injury. I'd think he'll need to be producing in the minors during his rehab before he'd be brought back up.

That's good enough for me.

The tribe insider guy just tweeted a hour ago that Laporta left with a lower right leg injury. Further evaluation and update tomorrow.

[andrew6586]

Looks like I get to start the thread tomorrow. Roll Tribe.

[tastybrownies]

Lol, peralta just hit a GRAND SLAM. Rocks 12 tigers 5.

[bac5665]

And Peralta is safely on my bench. Damn

Is LaPorta addition by subtraction?

Exactly what I was about to say.

Is Laporta getting hurt a blessing in disguise?

[FortheWin]

Manny Acta stated post game Matt LaPorta left game with a right ankle sprain. X rays were negative, MRI tomorrow

Solid game by the Tribe last night, despite some questionable base running. Drove in for the game with a friend of mine who is indbred through and through. Don't know the final hotdog count, but the last I saw was over 52,000- come on poeple.
