#470---NYA @ CLE, 5/30/2009


I don’t find the dots that I used to shoehorn the pitches into this scoresheet to be visually appealing, which matches how this game went for the Tribe. Fausto Carmona allowed seven runs in four innings (including homers by Jorge Posada and Nick Swisher) and Tomo Ohka mopped up for five long relief innings. 

In CC Sabathia’s first start in Cleveland after being traded the previous summer, he went 4 1/3 hitless innings before Shin-Soo Choo singled up the middle and three of the next four added singles. It ended up as a quality start (7 IP, 3 R, 3 W, 7 K) for Sabathia and a fairly easy victory.
