Your Opening Day starter got shelled Tuesday

Posted on April 1, 2009 by Pat McManamon

Indians starter Scott Lewis gave up 10 runs, 13 hits and  three home runs in 3 2/3 innings on Tuesday in Arizona. He's your starter for the home opener. After, Lewis blamed things on being unable to grip the ball in the dry air in Arizona. It sort of sounded a former Browns quarterback named David Mays saying he was overthrowing people because the field was downhill. But Indians manager Eric Wedge said after Lewis' struggles that there is something to it. "You hear a lot of that in Arizona," Wedge said. It's a dry heat.

    Why if the dry air is a problem with training and evaluation did the Indians move from Florida to AZ? Obviously it was not about what was best in preparing for the baseball season. Could it me all about $$$$

    Thank God the Cavaliers aren't making excuses right now! Browns and Indians can learn something about heart from all the Cavs!
