Tomlin became the second Tribe pitcher to win his Major League debut in the last ten days. Jeanmar Gomez beat the Tigers on July 18 before being sent back to Triple-A Columbus. Tomlin and Gomez are the first pair of Indians to earn wins in their Major League debuts in the same season since Phil Bedgood and Dewey Metivier in did it in 1922.
Considering all of the disappointment this season, the Tribe's pitching has not been too bad overall, there are definitely some brights spots in the pitching staff and on offense that have me optimistic for the future.
But, as is usually the case with the Tribe, we'll make a run in the playoffs in a few years, fall short, and then get rid of all our good players. Such is life as a Cleveland sports fan.
Anyway, good job Josh and Jeanmar. Keep up the good work.
