big deal that his 20th consecutive save came against his old team. The body
language begged to differ. The Cleveland Indians closer finished off a 4-1
victory over the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday while battling an upset stomach
that left him spitting up fluid between pitches. After getting Adron Chambers on
a pop-up with a man on first for the final out, Perez went down to one knee. “I
drank some warm water and I ran out there and it just didnt settle well,” Perez
said. “What am I going to do, call timeout and run into the dugout? “If you
remember, a couple years ago in spring training it was the same situation. So I
need to stay away from warm water.” Clevelands Jason Kipnis hit a tiebreaking
three-run homer off closer Jason Motte in the ninth after the Cardinals left the
bases loaded in the eighth. Vinnie Pestano (3-0) walked three straight batters
with one out in the eighth but recovered to strike out No. 3 hitter
Yadier Molina and cleanup man Allen Craig. “Thats the game right there,” Kipnis
said. “I thought both starting pitchers did a great job and it just came down to
who can execute late.” Carlos Beltran homered for the second straight day to
increase his National League-leading total to 18, and Joe Kelly allowed one run
in five-plus innings in his major league debut for the Cardinals. St. Louis is
the only major league team that has not won a series over the Indians, who are
14-6 overall and 8-4 on the road against the Cardinals. “Its a little bit of
everything right now,” Beltran said. “Weve been battling injuries and things
like that, but at the same time we just need to find a way to play better.
Theres no excuses.” The Cardinals have lost eight of 12 and totalled just five
runs in the series. They went the last two without cleanup hitter Matt Holliday,
who could return from mid-back spasms on Tuesday after the teams off day Monday.
“Guys are grinding. Theyre fighting, and Im going to continue to stay optimistic
because thats what I believe,” manager Mike Matheny said. “Its not a facade—
its only a matter of time before we take off. “When we take off, its going to be
a good run.” Michael Brantley extended his hitting streak to 18 games and
Ubaldo Jimenez had a season-best seven strikeouts in seven strong innings for
Cleveland. The Indians had scored just onee run in 19 innings before the ninth,
when pinch hitter Johnny Damon hit a leadoff single and Asdrubal Cabrera walked
with one out. Antonio Gates Womens Jersey. Kipnis hit his
10th homer on a 2-2 fastball from Motte (3-3). On Saturday, Motte got Kipnis to
fly out to right on a pitch that he thought had a slightly better location. “Its
just one of those things,” Motte said. “He got the barrel on it. It happens.”
The Indians won despite going 1 for 9 with runners in scoring position and 2 for
18 with men on base. Perez, who once competed with Motte for the St. Louis
closer spot, has been flawless since blowing a save on opening day. “I enjoyed
pitching out there today, beating my former team, but at the end of the day I
was just trying to get the save,” Perez said. “If I go out there too amped up
and trying to do too much, I wouldnt have had a good outing.” Jimenez had his
first walk-free game of the season, after coming in with 43 walks in 62 2-3
innings. The right-hander has walked just one in his last two starts covering 13
2-3 innings and faced only three three-ball counts against the Cardinals. The
first came in the first inning against Beltran, who belted a 3-1 pitch an
estimated 428 feet to right-centre. Jimenez then retired 13 in a row, including
five strikeouts in a span of eight at-bats. Kelly, who replaced the injured
Jaime Garcia in the rotation, left to a standing ovation after Brantley singled
to start the sixth and kept his hit streak alive. “It felt like another start,”
said Kelly, who began last season at the Class A level. “I didnt think I was
going to sleep last night and I got great sleep. “I was relaxed. It was good to
go.” Brantley is batting .357 (25 for 70) during his hit streak, the longest
current run in the majors and two shy of the seasons longest by Adam Jones of
Baltimore that ended May 30. Brantley can match his career best, set in 2010, at
Cincinnati on Tuesday. NOTES: Cardinals utilityman Matt Carpenter (right side)
