Justin Masterson out-dueled David Phelps as the Indians beat the Yanks in about 2 1/2 hours this afternoon in Cleveland. Masterson went the distance and a Jason Kipnis solo home run in the first was all the scoring. Tidy.
Final Score: Indians 1, Yanks 0.
Game 2 will start shortly after 3 p.m.
Never mind the disappointment:
Let’s Go Yank-ees!

Hey, wait, not fair. I haven't even had a chance to google the guys who were in the game one lineup (Corban who?) , and they're getting ready to start game two already?!
I wanna do-over!
You'll settle for a split. LOL
Tip of the Derby hat to Masterson. Phelps pitched well too.
Vidal Nuno? Trying for the reverse Karma effect since the Indians released him? Let's go Yankee Rookie!
I was about to start listening at work, but then the new Daft Punk leaked, and well...
there's the run we needed last game!
according to chad at lohud, boeschy has been optioned to AAA. Curtis might be on his way manana...
nice inning, nuno!
[4] Disco!
Are we still in first place???
Wow. Runs be tough to come by today, huh?
[9] Like black truffles.
We need a pig!
Ruh roh.
Sweeeeet!
Impressive job by Nuno.
Yes, a third run!
And now a fourth
Picked a good time to get home and turn on the tube.
Fuggin A.
Damn. Found the pigs [10].
The Yankees scored six runs while I was driving home. (John and Suzyn were happy.)
[7] it's hugely disappointing, IMO
ok guys, dilemma time...I have tickets in hand for tomorrow night, which appears to be Grandy's return, BUT Knicks Game 4 is at 7 o'clock. I'm torn.
Mike Wilbon is KILLING Joba on PTI regarding the Mo situation. lol....
[20] Switched over to watch that. Agree 100%. Surprised Joba hasn't been traded to the Astros or Marlins for a bucket of used balls already.
This is a rather unusual Save Opportunity.
Well well.
What a performance by the Rail Riders!
Congratulations to Vidal Nuno on his first big league win. And to Adam Warren for his first big league save.
Oh, and to Corban Joseph on his first big league hit.
