'I think that's a good thing.' Relievers Joe Smith, Mike Morin and Vinnie Pestano combined to retire nine of 10 batters, and Fernando Salas escaped a two-on, one-out jam in the ninth by getting Bobby Bradley to ground into a game-ending double play.ĮXTRA BASES: Center fielder Collin Cowgill made a nice diving catch of Ryan Raburn's drive to the gap in left-center field in the second inning. 'They just wanted some more eyes on me this time out,' said Tropeano, who is competing for the fifth rotation spot. ON THE MOUND: Nick Tropeano, whose previous starts came in split-squad and B games, looked good through three hitless innings but walked two and was hurt by a fielding error in the fourth inning, when the Indians scored three unearned runs.
