Monday's Indians-Tigers game had some unusual stats in the box score, mostly because Tigers starting pitcher Dontrelle Willis has such awful control.
* Ben Francisco and Victor Martinez both scored two runs, but neither got a hit. (They both walked twice.)
* The Indians scored eight runs, but got only six hits. (Five walks helped, though.)
* Willis threw 64 pitches, but only 27 for strikes. (Normally, a 2:1 ratio of strikes to balls is optimal.)
* Brent Clevlen doesn't play for Cleveland, even though his name is pronounced almost the same.
And, the even more unusual item:
* Rafael Betancourt pitched a scoreless inning!

Nothing to do with the Indians...
While on the general movie page I came across an ad for the Spirit movie. The studio must be thinking its a big film, its coming out at Christmas.
The theme music IS from the Untouchables, (the Costner/Connery movie) and is Ennio Morricone's, and likely classicly based. It is not listed as such, but it is unmistakable. I wonder if they intend to use it throughout the film.
