Q: It is early May in Cleveland. Terry Francona is the baseball coach and the team is .500. Of what year do I speak?
A: Um.
Here in the present, Zach Plesac pitched a fine game this afternoon and led a quartet including Bryan Shaw, James Karinchak, and Emmanuel Clase (sequentially) to a four-hit shutout of the Chicago White Sox.
Plesac walked four while striking out six. Efficiency is the only nit to be picked with his pitching today. I ask myself, though, am I upset that our starter only gave us five-plus innings if they are clean?
