Well, that's a lot better

Clocks never move as slowly as during the period between an opening day loss and the next game. The Cleveland Indians didn't just lose Sunday night. They lost to the team they are hoping to unseat as division champs. They lost by playing sloppy baseball in sloppy weather on a sloppy field. They lost their number one starter to the disabled list. You get the point, this was a game they wanted to put behind them quickly. That is just what they did. Yesterday's game was a mirror image of Sunday's. It was well pitched. It included timely hitting - in the 4th inning they managed to string together 4 two-out hits. It included solid fielding. Most importantly, yesterday's game was a win which allowed them to forget about Sunday's debacle.
