Making his case

The man called PRONK made his case to be included on the American League All Star team last night. Facing the defending champion Boston Red Sox, whose manager Terry Francona picks All Star reserves, he hit two doubles and a ninth inning Grand Slam.

Because of the teams awful performance in April and early May, I was certain only one Indian would represent Cleveland at the annual All Star game. The bullpen was tremendous early and seemed deserving of recognition. June has changed my thoughts somewhat. The offense has come to life with the installation of Grady Sizemore as the leadoff man. Speaking of Sizemore, he had a rather odd line in the box score from last night scoring 4 runs while going 0 for 3.
