The Gate Giveth
In case you missed it…Peralta was given a gift from the gods! An inside the park home run!
I know what you’re thinking…Indians fans have something to cheer about?
Yes, yes we do. Johnny Peralta hit a ball deep to right centerfield. So deep, in fact, that the outfielder literally crashed through the Indians bullpen door trying to get to it. Peralta is not quick. I actually think that a snail could have beaten him to home plate. But he managed to beat the delayed throw home, and thusly, a two-run inside the park home run.
The Indians finished off a banner weekend with the win today. A four game sweep of the Tigers is not an easy feat, moreso when you consider that we have a bunch of AAA players developing in the majors.
We’ll see if the Tribe can keep the streak going…but I’m not holding my breath.
