Creep From Behind Victories...

[Alex]

The Indians have mastered the Creep From Behind Victory. If you get too far ahead of the Indians too early in the game, beware of the Creep from Behind Indians.

Our first CREEP FROM BEHIND victory since I started this thread. I'll post to this thread everytime we "creep from behind".

Tonights victim were the Oakland A's. Who were ahead 4-0 and 4-1 as last as the 8th inning, the Indians only had two hits entering the 8th, but without aid of a homerun, the Indians creeped back with one run in the 8th and 3 in the ninth.

The usual suspects were involved. Matt Lawton getting a key walk, Omar Vizquel always seems to putt the ball for a sharp hit late in the game, and he did it again.

and Travis Hafner had his signature double. He has 28 now, wow. Lou Merloni got the game winning hit with two outs and the bases loaded and the Indians down by one run.

Lou and Ben Broussard have turned into quite a potent 1-1 punch at first base, they actually have almost idential RBI's to Jim Thome when you combine their numbers!

Lou and Ben have 59 RBI's in 370 at bats (I am counting walks as an at bat), Jim Thome has 61 RBI's in 340 at bats.
