22-4? Wow…   Is the new Yankee Stadium corked?  Cleveland had a 14 run second inning on 13 hits, one hit shy of the all-time AL record for hits in an inning.  Asdrubal Cabrera led a balanced attck for The Indians with a grand slam off of Chien-Ming Wang whose ERA went from 28.00 to above 30.00.

To make the day better, The Cavs won.  All-in-all it was a damn good day in Cleveland.  It’s a shame The Indians only play once in New York.  The most enjoyable part of the game for me was hearing the boos, almost every inning, mixed with chorus of Swisher chants every time Cleveland scored.

Only one game left in The Bronx, Sunday afternoon, first pitch is at 1:05 Pm.  Carl Pavano faces off against AJ Burnett.

Fausto Carmona looked decent for Cleveland in picking up his first win.  Carmona seemed to buckle down after giving up a 2-run homer to Mark Teixera in the 1st inning.  Going in down 2-0 and coming back out up 14-2 will do that for your confidence.

The Indians got five homers besides Cabrera’s slam.  Mark DeRosa and Shin-Soo Choo hit a three run shot each.  Victor Martinez, Grady Sizemore and Travis Hafner added to Yankee agony by hitting solo shots.

The Indians finally recorded their first win of 2009 getting past Toronto 8-4 on Easter Sunday.  Mark DeRosa’s bat seems to be coming to life as he homered for The Tribe.  Travis Hafner also went yard to keep his hot start in tact.  The highlight of the day for Indians fans had to be the pitching of Anthony Reyes.

Reyes worked six good innings for Cleveland, the longest any starter has lasted so far this season, en route to his first victory.  Reyes surrenders 4 runs on just three hits.  Kerry Wood struck out the side to pitch a perfect ninth in relief.

The Indians need to stay on task and win a few in a row to feel like the good team they can be.  Kansas City is the new target as Cleveland opens a three game series with the Royals tonight.
