Today, continuing their destruction of the Clippers, the Indians called up two more players. This brings their total from just this week to four players brought up.

After making several trades, the Tribe needed a new catcher and a new pitcher, so they brought up catcher Wyatt Toregas and pitcher Jensen Lewis.

Wyatt Toregas was picked 24th back in 2004 and has never made it up to the Bigs. He has, however, always been in the Indian’s organization. This season, he is batting .284 in 60 games. He also has 7 home runs and 29 RBIs.

Lewis, on the other hand, who has also been with the Tribe his whole career (3 seasons), has been bouncing up and down between the Bigs and the Minors. For the Clippers, he has pitched 12 games and didn’t allow a run for 18+ innings.

Good luck to the new Indians

Tonight the Clippers won in a comeback victory. Not only was it a come back, but a tie late in the game forced it to be extend and won in extra innings. Columbus started the game off by scoring in the first. Lehigh Valley answered, and answered well, as they then scored 3 in the first. Columbus took the lead 4-3 in the 7th, but the IronPigs were able to again tie it in the 8th. As nobody scored in the 9th, the game went into the 10th. There, the Clippers scored once more, earning the win.

This is the 5th win of the last 10, and the 8th of the last 15 for the Clippers. This was also the third game of a 4-game series between the two teams – Lehigh Valley currently is leading in the series, 2-1.

Nobody from the Clippers managed to hit the ball out of the park, but Andy Tracy did for the IronPigs. It was his 17th of the season.

For the Clippers, RHP Jensen Lewis was credited with his 5th hold. RHP Greg Aquino got his first win, making him 1-0, and his first BS. RHP Jess Todd also got his first save of the season. For the IronPigs, RHP Francisco Butto got his first BS and LHP Jack Taschner got his first loss, making him 0-1.

Tomorrow night, The Clippers and the IronPigs will play their 4th game of this 4-game series – the series is currently held by Lehigh Valley at 2-1. It will also be the 8th game of an 8-game road trip for the Clippers – they are losing this trip 3-4. They need the win tomorrow night to keep both series even. The game will be played at 7:05 at Coca-Cola Park.

Tonight, the Clippers barely made it past the Red Sox in what amounted to a pitchers duel. This was the 6th win of the last 10 and the 9th of the last 15. Additionally, it was the first win of the 4-game series against Pawtucket and the 8-game away series. They are leading both, 1-0 at this point.

Pawtucket started the game off, when Travis Denker was hit in for the only run. Then, however, Columbus took it into their hands. In the 4th, the 7th, and the 9th innings, the Clippers managed to score one run.

For the Red Sox, nobody managed to send one into the stand. For the Clippers, Matt LaPorta hit his 13th (and second in two nights) and Jordan Brown hit his 11th.

For the Clippers, LHP Chuck Lofgren picked up his 5th win, and is now even at  5-5. RHP Jensen Lewis got his 4th hold of the season and RHP Greg Aquino got his 8th save.

For the Red Sox, RHP Michael Bowden was credited with the loss, putting him at 3-5 for the year.

Tomorrow night, the Clippers will play the second game of this 4-game series, and the second of the 8-game roadtrip, against the Red Sox. The game will be at 6:05 at McCoy Stadium.

Tonight, the Columbus Clippers won the third game in their 4-game series against the Syracuse Chiefs. This is also the third win of an 8-game home stand, though there have only been three games. Even with the win, Columbus is dead last in the International League West with a 41-52 record.

Tonight’s game was really a no brainer. Even though Syracuse scored three times in the first, they were held shut for the rest of the game. The Clippers scored twice in the second and four time in the third.

Third Baseman Andy Marte was the only Clipper to say Goodbye to Columbus, this was his 14th of the season. For the Chiefs, Elijah Dukes hit his 2nd homer of the season.

LHP Chuck Lofgren (4-5) was given the win tonight, and RHP Jensen Lewis was given his third hold of the season. RHP Collin Balester (7-9) was recorded for the loss.

Tomorrow, the Clippers will play host to the Chiefs for the fourth, and final, time. This is the last game of the 4-game series which Columbus currently leads by 3-0. The game will be played at 5:05 tomorrow night at Huntington Park.

Any win is a good win.

Tonight, the Columbus Clippers tied their 3-game series at 1-1 when they beat the Indianapolis Indians, 2-1, at Huntington Field. This is only their 3rd win in 10 games, and their 5th in 15. The win brings the Clippers record up to 37-49, though they are still dead last in the International League West.

Trevor Crowe picked up a hit, bringing his streak to 14. Andy Marte hit as well, bringing him to 13 in the last 15 games. Tony Graffanino also got a hit, bringing his steak up to 6 games.

Today, 21 RHP Hector Rondon (1-0) got his first ever AAA start. He threw an amazing 6 innings without a hit, and is probably the best pitcher in the entire Indian’s orginization. He is creited with the win, obviously. There will be more on him in a future post. LHP Rich Rundles (5) and RHP Jensen Lewis (2) were credited with holds. RHP Greg Aquino got his 5th save.

For the Indians, LHP Tom Gorzelanny(3-3) had a decent start, but was given the loss.

Tomorrow afternoon, the Indians and Clippers will finish their 3-game series. The game will be at 12:05 at Huntington Park, and will feature three promotions for your to enjoy. Come check it out.

Tonight, for the 2nd time in 10 games, and the 4th time in 15, the Clippers were able to add a win to their record. In tonight’s victory, both the Clippers and the Mud Hens got runs in the first, but then did nothing for the next 6 innings. Columbus then scored 1 in the 7th, 4 in the 8th, and 2 in the 9th, to beat the Mud Hens 8-1. This win brings the Clippers to 36-48, though they are still last in the International League West.

Tonight’s victory also brings the 5-game series against Toledo to 2-3, in favor of the Mud Hens. This is a fairly respectable series.

Tonight, both Trevor Crowe and Jordan Brown managed to hit some balls, adding to their streaks. Crowe made it to base 3 times, including one home run, and brings his streak to 12 games. Brown made it to base only once, but brought his streak up to 8.

For the Clippers, Crowe was the only player to hit a home run. For the Mud Hens, Wilkin Ramirez was the only player to send one deep, and he also is the only player to score.

Clippers RHP Fausto Carmona (NR) had a great start, though he was not credited with the win, as he was taken out in the 5th when they were tied. Instead, RHP Rafael Betancourt (1-0) got the win and RHP Jensen Lewis (1) got the hold.

For Toledo, RHP Chris Lambert(3-6) had a good 6 innings, and was not credited with the loss. Instead, Josh Rainwater (0-1) got it, and it was his first loss this season.

Tomorrow night, the Clippers are taking a much needed break. They will resume on Tueday, when they host the Indianapolis Indians at 7:05 on Huntington Field. There are three promotions that night which you should come check out.

Baring any trades or moves, I look forward to seeing you all again on Tuesday.
