Cubs 10, Braves 5. Not only have the Braves lost four in a row, but also Tom Glavine now joins John Smoltz on the DL with an elbow injury. Atlanta has been absolutely brutal on the road this year (7-22).
Angels 6, Rays 1. The front office and coaching staff for the Halos must constantly pull their hair out with Jered Weaver. One game he’s throwing a three-hitter through eight innings and the next he’s only lasting four and he’s blasted for six runs. But nice gem last night, though.
Indians 1, Twins 0. What a game by C.C. Sabathia (9.0 IP, 5 hits, 0 ER, 5 K’s), who had previously lost four straight starts. The Tribe need to get this guy more run support. Since May, the Indians are averaging just over two runs a game when Sabathia starts.
Cardinals 7, Reds 2. Bad break for the Cards as Albert Pujols leaves the game with a calf injury. According to the club, the injury looks pretty serious. He’ll have tests done today, but it looks like Chris Duncan will get a call up to play first base.
