Well, the Indians gave up a long time ago and have a lame duck coach.

OK. NESN feed doesnt work at all, but Indians one does. You just can only use the nextdef mode, which means we'll be behind the gamethread... but at least its something.

Good thing I wont have to use MLB.tv for the playoffs. If they did this to me during them, I would find them.

OK, Hawkeye.

This is pretty annoying though. Don't they have backup plans and backup plans for their backup plans?

As a random aside: Does anyone know if the 'Red Sox Nation' 'perks' apply for post-season games. In particular, I am curious about early entry ( I have standing room tickets).

It's terrible though. The audio sounds like its being recorded in a soundproof booth in the building across the street from the stadium.

With pillowcases over the broadcasters' mikes.

Indians fans have to listen to this all year?

According to the 100% historically accurate portrayal in Major League, the Indians only have like 9 fans and they all have season tickets.

I'd say he should go back out... pitch count of 95-100 which would keep him stretched out.

Agreed. And I want Lester to get one more inning - both to give the pen some rest and because, frankly, its fucking fun watching him pitch.

Yup. On the other side, the 2 out RISP numbers tonight stink. That stat seems to be important in the playoffs. The only time Jacoby didn't get a hit tonight was when he runners on and 2 out.

So far tonight, 12 hits, 3 walks, in 6 innings. Should be more runs.

Funny little moment there between Lester and Francona... Tito's on the mound and Lester wasn't handing him that ball, then he kind smiled and gave it to him. Anybody else see that?
