#302---CLE @ DET, 5/1/2009


Out of the many Indians games I’ve scored, I do not have one of Armando Galarraga’s should have been perfect game in 2010. I do have this one, in which the Indians scored four runs off Galarraga in the second and knocked him out after five innings with a 5-0 lead. Carl Pavano didn’t allow Detroit a hit until the fourth, and the Indians tacked on a run in the seventh. 

It’s fortunate they did, because after Pavano allowed two doubles in the eighth, Jensen Lewis came on to allow two hits and serve up a three-run bomb to Miguel Cabrera. Rafael Betancourt was summoned, and he set down all four Tigers he faced to pick up the save.
