The AL Central leading Cleveland Indians take their blazin' May 2013 Show to the Hub to battle the feisty Carmines of Boston. The Tribe is led by Ace RHP Justin Masterson (7-2 with a 2.83 ERA) and power-hitting 1st baseman Mark Reynolds (12 HR 40 RBI .261 Avg). The Tribe have come from the middle of the oack in the Central at the start of May to take the lead over the Tigers. And look whose back in Fenway ex-Bo Sox Skip Terry Francona (pictured right as Tribe Skipper) and they will be standing for at least an Hour honoring him.
The Red Sox come in on the heels of the Bronx Bombers as the Duo of Clay Buchholz (7-0 with a 1.73 ERA) and Jon Lester (6-1 with a 3.15 ERA) lead the Red Sox on the Hill. At the dish its "Big Papi" David Ortiz (8 HR 34 RBI .351 Avg), Dustin Pedroia (2 HR 22 RBI .330 Avg) and Back Stop Mike Napoli (7 HR 35 RBI .263 Avg). The Red Sox have been holding steady after they jumped out in April to an early lead. The only concern for the Bo Sox is their Closing Duties moving forward without Closer Hanrahan.
Three Game Set at Fenway...May 24-May 26
TRIBE (27-19 1st AL Central) vs CARMINES (28-20 2nd AL East)
May 24 7:10pm ET
CLE Masterson (7-2) vs BOS Lackey (2-4)
May 25 1:35pm ET
CLE Kazmir (2-2) vs BOS Lester (6-1)
May 26 1:35pm ET
CLE Kluber (3-3) vs BOS Doubront (3-2)
Masterson and Lackey is a solid match up to start the series off as Lackey lost some El Bees in the Off Season as he is still trying to find the Halos Dominant Lackey. Lester goes to the Hill on Saturday and Tribe Hitters need to jump on him early as Cleveland throws Former Rays #1 Prospect LHP Scott Kazmir....and look what the wind blew in. The finale will be Kluber vs Doubront in the Get Away Game on Sunday.
Bot Squads are in excellent position heading into June Baseball and they are exactly where you need to be with more Inter League play ahead starting next week.
