Is it me or does everyone else know that Torre turned down the MFYs and won't return?

[Yazdog8]

Beckett looking as vulnerable as Sabathia.

Beckett will settle down. Actually whoever does first will win tonight. C'mon Josh. Settle down NOW!

[neil]

Can't we get one game where the pitching and offense plays well.

[Coach W]

I'm beginning to hate everything about Cleveland.

I'm on a jack per half inning pace...is that bad?

Depends--got an extra liver in the fridge?

[esaslaw]

This complaint about "luck" is unbecoming and has a Yankee-fan like sound to it. They are putting it to us, and we are not responding. If we can get out of this inning, to, we might be ok cause cc still does not look right.

[shawnrbu]

Nice K.

[Insert Former Player Here]

Uhh... sliding is part of the game. Don't be an ass.

No comment on whether he should've slid or not, I'm stuck in class and can't watch at the moment. I just hate the phrase.

[gtg807y]

That a boy, Josh. Let's get the runs, Taco Bell style.

Edit: I forgot about those losers in the Taco Bell commercial. So ignore that last part.

Game 1

Yep. Sounds like they gave him an offer he couldn't accept.

[Yazdog8]

Depends on if you have Hep C or not!

BECKETT!

We had it.

That was Game 1.

There is no such thing as a Fake Edit, I am just an idiot who can't figure out how to put a secondary thought into my posts without this crutch: K it is. Thanks, Josh. Lil' late, but we'll take it.

Yeah, I never had anything against cleveland before. But I do now.

It was immortalized in the sweep of the Angels, by Patman's radio caller: Well, I just wanted to say, I'm just so proud of these boys. They played their hearts out this weekend and I'm just so proud of them. They play the game the right way and it's just so great to see them playing so hard and I'm just so proud of them. I'll hang up now and listen.

Yep, I hate it too.

OK then. Not sliding is playing the game the wrong way. Better?

[neil]

The offense had better not go into their "the bats up my a-hole not in my hands" mode like they have the last 2 games.

[BernieRicoBoomer]

Nah...got a nice roast though

There is the "right way" to play the game and the "Manny" way to play the game.

In the overall picture, I'll take the Manny way ( but only from Manny)

Out of that inning relatively cheaply, but Josh looks fairly hittable tonight.

Let's hope he settles down and CC doesn't.

[physcho20x9]

apparently the entire indians team is batting 400 this series. no wonder were losing.

at least it seems that way. and yet vmart is the highest on the team with a .375 avg.

[esaslaw]

I was unhappy with out 1 run on 3 hits, but with CC looking hittable, I'll bet Cleveland fans are even more uneasy. That killer DP usually is by Cleveland against us.

[PayrodsFirstClutchHit]

I have rerun the Manny play on Tivo a dozen times and there is NO WAY a slide makes any difference at the plate.

[physcho20x9]

The offense had better not go into their "the bats up my a-hole not in my hands" mode like they have the last 2 games.

At least if they're in that mode they can't gidp.

Let's go boys, RUNS.

[Insert Former Player Here]

At least if they're in that mode they can't gidp.

Well of course they can't if there's nobody on base.

[BernieRicoBoomer]

Is there any other song they can play with cleveland in it?

[P'tucket, rhymes with...]

I haven't seen the replay, but it looked like VMart had the plate blocked and Manny would have grounded to a halt about a foot shy of the plate.

[hrbrendan]

i have to go coach fucking hockey now. im doing so with a mini radio on and an ear bud in one ear though ill be back later to post pictures of fireworks and water.

[Sprowl]

OK then. Not sliding is playing the game the wrong way. Better?

I can live with that, JtB. Of course, another glass of WIN will help.

Really? I've done the same and had the exact opposite feeling. Agree to disagree, I guess.

[newhampshaman]

Is the field mike turned all the way up or is the ump batshit insane?

[hrbrendan]

annnnnnd paul byrd still sounds like an idiot when his mouth opens.

[BernieRicoBoomer]

Ump is pretty excited about calling strikes tonight...

[Sprowl]

Is it me or does everyone else know that Torre turned down the MFYs and won't return?

By the time I got back from work, the news had broken, and there were 200+ responses in the Torre Walks thread.

Seeya, Joe, you'd make a great commissioner for MLB. Put Selig's suit out to pasture.

[JohnnyTheBone]

"Look Out Cleveland", by The Band.

Gameday had that last pitch to Kielty in the batters box...was it that bad?

[Dim13]

Is it me or does Martinez frame more pitches than any other catcher?

[Al Zarilla]

Ball 5 to Kielty as he strikes out. FUCK THIS HOME PLATE UMPIRE. Baseball is screwed, blued and tattoed by these horrible umpires. I thought the NFL was bad, but at least they use instant replay. Die, Bud Selig, die.

Should be first and second, no out. And, why didn't Kielty complain?

[DeronJohnson'sTriple]

Yuck. Ugly hack at ball 3

[physcho20x9]

Inside

was according to gameday, as have been a few pitches called for strikes. At least he's making him throw pitches.

[shawnrbu]

Lucky break there.

[Preacher]

Hopefully that call gets in Sabathia's head and he starts to lose it.

[DeronJohnson'sTriple]

Baserunner. Yummy. OK, Coco, time to do something good.

[gtg807y]

Time for a little bit of production from the bottom of the order.



Produce

[newhampshaman]

If Coco GIDP I might puke.

[Coach W]

I have low expectations right now

[Sprowl]

Really? I've done the same and had the exact opposite feeling. Agree to disagree, I guess.

If Manny could do a hard hook slide, I think he would have had a chance. Even better, a full body Cannonball would knock the catcher into the middle of next week.

If you're gonna be out at home, take a few of the enemy with you

[physcho20x9]

Baserunner. Yummy. OK, Coco, time to do something good.

Indeed. All I can think of when Coco is up to bat is "If you're going to gidp, just strike out"

[patman]

I think McCarver just reverse jinxed Coco.
