Tribe Strikes Early, Spoils White Sox Home Opener By Tribe strikes early, spoils White Sox home opener By Scott Merkin and Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | April 8th, 2016 CHICAGO -- Danny Salazar was effectively wild and John Danks was not effective overall, as the Indians spoiled the White Sox home opener with a 7-1 victory Friday afternoon before 38,019 at U.S. Cellular Field. The game was played with a first-pitch temperature of 39 degrees and intermittent snow flurries. "It's very frustrating. We've been doing our jobs the last four games and we were coming in hot," White Sox third baseman Todd Frazier said. "You're going to have games like this. It happens. We couldn't really find a groove there with everybody, and that's the way it goes." Salazar allowed one run on two hits over 5 1/3 innings, striking out seven and walking three. But he threw 94 pitches during his season-opening start, 52 for strikes. He went to a three-ball count on six of the first seven hitters, but closed the third without having given up a hit. "We gave him a cushion, which was really good," Indians manager Terry Francona said. "You could tell he was having a tough time. He was scattering a lot of fastballs and deep counts. But, he still threw the ball really well. And you could tell he was having trouble throwing his breaking ball where he wanted to. "Saying all that, he gave up the solo home run to Frazier and not a whole lot else." The Indians jumped on Danks for three in the first, aided by Alex Avila's throwing error on aCarlos Santana swinging bunt in front of the plate. Jose Ramirez's double, Rajai Davis' triple and Jason Kipnis' sacrifice fly produced two more runs in the second. Danks retired 10 in a "I've been excited about this start for a couple weeks now. I definitely pictured it going a lot different in my head," said Danks, who fanned six and walked one in five innings and 105 pitches. "But, you know, it's baseball. Got to get ready for the next one. That's just the way it goes. Do my best to forget about this and focus on Minnesota." MOMENTS THAT MATTERED First-inning mulligan: The White Sox would have liked a do-over for the first inning, after the Indians jumped on Danks for three runs. Danks allowed two singles and a walk, but the biggest issue of the frame came on Avila's error on Santana's swinging bunt in front of the plate with the bases loaded. Avila looked back toward home to see if he could get the ball to Danks for the force, and then threw the ball away at first, allowing two runs to score. With the frigid temperatures, Avila wasn't able to get a great grip on the ball. "But, I mean, that doesn't really matter," Avila said. " I didn't help him out in that first inning there and we weren't able to stop the bleeding." More > "Little things sometimes end up being big things," Francona said. "Carlos hit that ball 10 feet, but because he ran [we caught a break]. If he doesn't run, nothing happens. So, good things happen when you play the game right." One step too far: The White Sox had the makings of a rally in the second, when Salazar issued back-to-back walks to Melky Cabrera and Avisail Garcia. With one out, though, Garcia wandered too far off first base. Catcher Yan Gomes received a pitch and snapped a quick throw to first baseman Mike Napoli, who made a swift tag to complete the pickoff. Salazar followed with a strikeout of Brett Lawrie and headed off the mound and straight to Gomes to thank his catcher for bailing him out. "I was actually thrilled," Francona said of the play. "That's something we talked about in Spring Training. Nap and Gomer have talked about it. … They had a couple walks and, all of a sudden, it's two outs and a runner on second." "For him, it was too big of a lead," White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. "We're down by five, and we need a lot more than just him scoring. So really just shorten up and take care of it that way." Davis shows off speed: Davis continued Cleveland's early push against Danks in the second, when he tripled to center to plate Ramirez. He then tested center fielder Austin Jackson by tagging and scoring on a flyout by Kipnis. In the bottom of the fifth, Davis sprinted back on an Adam Eaton liner to center, tracking down the deep fly with a lunging, falling catch at the warning track to bring an emphatic end to the inning. "He said he didn't see that ball," said Francona, who then smiled. "But he said when everybody on the whole field is looking at him, that's a bad feeling. I said, 'Yeah, it didn't look good from our [standpoint], either.' I was proud of our guys today." More > Welcome to Chicago: Frazier, who picked "Come Fly With Me" as his Frank Sinatra-themed walkup song, introduced himself to the home faithful with a one-out home run in the fourth on a 0-2 pitch. It was Frazier's second long ball since joining the White Sox. • White Sox home opener has wintry feel QUOTABLE "It was a little bit weird, first time pitching in really cold weather. And then it was snowing. Sometimes I was getting behind in the count, but then I was coming back and I made the adjustment right there." -- Salazar, on fighting the elements "That was amazing. I know he gave Napoli an eye or something, to be there. It got me. I was surprised. I didn't think he was going to throw there, but he did and he got the out. That was huge." -- Salazar, on Gomes' pickoff play "You might be able to get to him because he tends to give you chances, but it's hard to capitalize on those chances." -- Avila, on Salazar SOUND SMART WITH YOUR FRIENDS Santana celebrated his 30th birthday with a pair of RBIs. Dating back to 2009, when Santana was with Double-A Akron, he has hit .419 (13-for- 31) with six home runs and 16 RBIs on his last eight birthdays. That includes a 7-for-22 showing with three homers in the Majors. AVOID THE INDIANS Danks has a 1-9 record with a 6.59 ERA over 13 career home starts against Cleveland. WHAT'S NEXT Indians: Following his strong rookie showing a year ago, right-hander Cody Anderson was named the Indians' No. 4 starter to begin this season. Anderson went 7-3 with a 3.05 ERA in 15 starts for Cleveland last year, shoring up the back end of the rotation. This spring, Anderson impressed the Tribe with his overhauled physical condition and he displayed a noticeable jump in velocity on his pitches. Anderson will take the ball for the Tribe in a 1:10 p.m. ET divisional clash against the White Sox on Saturday at U.S. Cellular Field. White Sox: Chris Sale will be making his 15th career start against the Indians on Saturday at 12:10 p.m. CT. He allowed three runs on four hits during a 34-pitch third inning against the A's in his first start on Opening Day but looked like the White Sox ace over the remaining six innings and 70 pitches. Sale struck out eight and walked one. Watch every out-of-market regular-season game live on MLB.TV. Davis' speed on display on great grab, RBI triple Indians center fielder robs Eaton in snow with lunging catch on the run By Jordan Bastian / MLB.com | @MLBastian | April 8th, 2016 CHICAGO -- Rajai Davis saw the pitch leave Danny Salazar's hand. The Indians center fielder then saw White Sox outfielder Adam Eaton swing. From there, all Davis saw was the falling snow against the gray sky over U.S. Cellular Field. One of the reasons Cleveland acquired Davis over the offseason was his speed. In a 7-1 victory over Chicago on Friday afternoon, his legs helped prolong an early Cleveland rally, and also bailed him out when the baseball off Eaton's bat went missing above the top of the stadium in the fifth inning. "I didn't see the ball do anything," Davis said. "And then, once I looked in and saw everybody looking at me, I knew that ball was coming my way." So, Davis looked up again, searching for any sign of the missing sphere. Austin Jackson, who connected for a two-out single before Eaton's delivered his invisible line drive, was sprinting around the bases. The baseball -- soaring through the snow flurries -- finally crossed in front of a patch of blue within the overcast sky. After that initial moment of panic, Davis turned and hustled back as hard as he could, making up the ground he lost in the confusion. As the ball dove toward the warning track in center, Davis extended his arm, snared it with his glove and tumbled to the dirt. The center fielder quickly rose to his knees, popped the ball into the air and plucked it with his bare right hand. He held it high, ran in with a grin and let out a shout. Salazar bent over in laughter in the infield.

  • Padding the Stats: a Study of MLB Player Performance in Meaningless Game- Situations
    Padding the Stats: A Study of MLB Player Performance in Meaningless Game- Situations Evan Hsia1, Jaewon Lee2 and Anton T. Dahbura3 Department of Computer Science Johns Hopkins University Abstract This paper presents the concept of Meaningless Game-Situations (MGS) in Major League Baseball (MLB), defined as situations in which a team has a 95% chance or greater of winning the game given the score at that particular inning in the game. We determine the run differentials for each inning that yield a 95% chance or greater of winning the game based on 2013-2016 MLB statistics and look at individual batter performances under MGS. We argue that including a split for MGS in major baseball statistical references should be considered. I. Introduction Hope springs eternal, especially in the game of baseball. But should it? Perhaps the absence of a game clock in baseball, unlike other major sports, creates the illusion that anything is possible, and in particular that one’s team can overcome even the largest of deficits, even late in the game. And, indeed, significant comebacks from behind are possible, but are so unlikely that in some cases they’re considered to be historic. For instance, in the game between the Pittsburgh Pirates and Philadelphia Phillies on June 8, 1989 the Pirates scored 10 runs in the top of the first inning. The Pirates’ radio broadcaster, Jim Rooker, proclaimed that if the Phillies were to come back from the 10-run deficit he would “walk home”. As fate would have it, the Phillies ended up winning the game 15-11, prompting Mr.
