Game two of this series. Another win would be nice. And it would also be nice if Yohendrick Pinango does so well that the Jays can’t bring themselves to send him back to the minors. The lineup is interesting. Today’s Lineups GUARDIANS BLUE JAYS Steven Kwan – CF Ernie Clement – SS Angel Martinez – […]
On April 8, Cole Ragans took the mound in a rubber match against the Cleveland Guardians. Steven Kwan led off and struck out looking on five pitches, including three dotted on the outer edge by Ragans. Angel Martinez struck out looking on four pitches. You could feel it. Cole had everything working for him, and […]
Guardians 3 Blue Jays 5 It seemed like the Kazuma Okamoto show. He was 2 for 3 with a homer, walk, 2 RBI and a number of nice plays at third. The home run, like yesterday’s was crushed to dead center, 425 feet, 108.9 mph. Just a terrific day for him. But Kevin Gausman was […]
So there was a bit of Jays news today, check out the posts, but the short of it: I feel bad for Lukes, battling through vertigo, finally starting to hit the way we’d expect and then this. That’s the thing about the game, we don’t know what the players are going through at anytime. Sometimes […]
Guardians 8 Blue Jays 6 I really hated them signing Max Scherzer again this season (even if it was cute that his daughter wrote to the Jays to plea for them to sign him). I didn’t think Scherzer had much left last year, I couldn’t imagine he’d be any better this year. So far, I’m […]

The Orioles dropped the finale of their four-game series to the Guardians, 8-4, as their offense underachieved again, their defense continued to stink, and their erstwhile ace coughed up six runs and suffered a noticeable velocity dip in his second straight ugly outing. Other than that, though, it was a great afternoon of baseball. The […]
The Orioles’ first four-game series of the season has not quite gone according to plan. An impressive eighth-inning comeback on Friday aside, the Birds’ bats have mostly been missing in action during their trip to Cleveland. The O’s have had no answer for Guardians starting pitchers. Rookie Parker Messick carried a no-hitter into the ninth […]

This was a short and unremarkable game. If you’re are a Guardians fan . . . well, what are you doing reading this blog? OK. If you’re a Guardians fan, there was much to celebrate in Gavin Williams’ seven-inning, three-hit, one-run, eleven-strikeout performance. The current MLB strikeout leader continued a fabulous streak where he’s allowed […]
So… that was fun! The Orioles got shut out for seven innings, gave up a grand slam, and still won. The bottom of the lineup was pivotal in that monster eighth inning: Leody Taveras had a big walk in a key situation, outfielder Weston Wilson doubled with the bases lodaed, and Jeremiah Jackson hit the […]
The Orioles and Guardians traded zeros for six innings before Cleveland took a commanding lead in the seventh. Daniel Schneemann launched a no-doubt grand slam with two outs in the seventh, and Baltimore appeared destined for its fourth straight loss. Fortunately, this team had other plans. The O’s exploded for six runs in the top […]

Tonight in Cleveland, manager Craig Albernaz will […]
The Cleveland Guardians could be called one of the more interesting teams in the American League. They won the AL Central last year (barely) and came into 2026 with a rotation that looks deeper on paper than it did then, even without any major additions. Their record so far (10-8) reflects a team that’s been […]
Game Summary An early run by the Guardians was matched by the Cardinals. Then a pitcher’s duel broke out. Dustin May threw six strong, 1-run innings, enough to capture a win as the Cardinals broke loose for three runs in the bottom of the sixth to break a 1-1 tie, with an Alec Burleson 2 […]
