As Tom Hamilton would say, "Welcome back to another season of Indians baseball." Unfortunately, the Tribe started the season out poorly, getting shut out by the Chicago White Sox 6-0. Chicago's Mark Buehrle did make an amazing play in the field. After a line drive hit off him and rickashayed into foul territory, he chased down the ball and flipped it with is mitt between his legs, getting the batter out at first. We may have already seen the best play of the year on Opening Day.
