#274---CLE @ ATL, 3/28/2008


 I don’t have much to say about this one, although I have always had a soft spot for exhibition games played in major league parks. Maybe it was the excitement with which my neighbor talked about going to the first game played at Jacobs Field in 1994, or the cold Indians/Cubs game I watched from the home run porch a few years later. 

Grady Sizemore, en route to his best season, had an interesting day, with a double, triple, and hit by pitch twice. Fausto Carmona probably gave us all reason to believe he’d continue his 2007 form as he allowed one run over six innings with one walk, two strikeouts, and ten outs on groundballs. Spoiler: he would not continue his 2007 form.
