Shin-Soo Choo, Lou Marson and Jose Lopez each reached base five times (Choo hit a home run and Marson had a double and a triple), the Indians had a season high 19 hits (eclipsing their previous high, 16, set on Friday) and they climbed back above .500 (39-38) with an 11-5 victory over the Orioles on Saturday afternoon. Josh Tomlin went a rocky six innings (5 ER, 7 H, 3 BB) and the bullpen pitched three scoreless innings. Shelly Duncan hit a home run and Asdrubal Cabrera went 3-5 with a double.
The Tribe looks to take the 4-game series on Sunday afternoon, when Justin Masterson faces off against Baltimore lefty Brian Matusz. First pitch is 1:35 PM.

Who else is excited to see the Jim Thome statue go up in Baltimore tomorrow?
Everyone reached base at least once…
Except for Aaron Cunningham. Who needs to be replaced.
Also, don’t look now but Lou Marson is now a .284 hitter. Is your mind not blown?
Lou Marson is clearly on some sort of terror as he came from a long way down to raise his average up close to .280. I think Lou is a much better hitter than given credit for. So the question is if The Real Lou Marson is a defensively sound .280 hitting catcher without great power and Santana is an average defensive .230 hitter with “potential” power who deserves the bulk of the time behind the dish?? Wasn’t Lou a highly touted catching prospect when we traded for him? Although I’m not implying his recent success is sustainable it’s interesting to see whether Manny rides the hot hand( Laser Lou ) or goes back to the slumping Santana.
why not play both? Santana getting a few days at DH isn’t a bad thing.
for the love of God, please get Cunningham out of here. Even Manning noted how everyone had a good day but him.
