Game #15

Game Date: April 23, 2009
Kansas City @ Cleveland
Indians 5, Royals 2 / Box Score
WP: Lewis (2-2), LP: Meche (1-1), SV: Wood (3)
KC Home Runs: None
Royals Record: 8-7 / Record in April: 8-7

What a disaster. First, Trey Hillman leaves Gil Meche in too long. Then Alberto Callaspo boots a ball. Then Hillman brings in Mahay to face Grady Sizemore (a lefty—something Jimmy Gobble excelled at in the past) and he gives up a three-run bomb. It was a horribly mismanaged game by Hillman. The Farnsworth debacle coupled with Hillman’s poor decisions early this season have cost the Royals as many as five games.
