Why would you downgrade the defense even more (Everett already at 3B) in a 1-run game?

It's a long way from Columbus to Cleveland to pinch run!!

sent back down already?

Yeah, and there's that. :hide:

Perez was talking about having the catcher setup down the middle to lefties so his natural tail would hit the outside corner..... let's see if Carlos is doing that to Ortiz and Drew.

Wow. Thank you Papi.

by **British_Pharaoh** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:51 pm

Cheers for making me look like a fool Papi

by **Prosecutor** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:52 pm

Nice job by Choo to hold that hit to a single. Come on Perez.

Great point.

The Brantley at bat was excellent but the Hannahan at bat was too and I looked past it to Brantley's and Cabrera's.

Hannahan's AB was just as big.

I am thinking it had something to do with the earthquake in Japan. Perhaps it shook to earth off of its axis, and we are in some kind of parellel universe.

Anyone know if Lowry is prone to GIDPs?

by **skatingtripods** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:53 pm

Too much rage again. Settle down.

Way too much of the plate against Drew. And his ass better slow down and stay back, he's missing up and away.

A get-me-over fastball isn't gonna cut it.

o boy....

by **Prosecutor** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:55 pm

Perez has no command so he's had to groove it. He's been struggling to get these saves lately.

No chance for a DP with Crawford - we need a K or a popup.

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:55 pm

Come on Rage

by **fairvis** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:55 pm

Come on, Chris. Calm it down.

by **shamwow imitator** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:55 pm

Routine

by **fairvis** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:55 pm

4-6-3. Ballgame.

4-6-3

Ballgame!!!

by **Prosecutor** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:56 pm

Holy shit! They doubled up Crawford. Amazing. Perez is Houdini again.

Routine save for Rage!!

by **British_Pharaoh** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:56 pm

The defense has been carrying Perez in his last 3 save opportunities

by **Dellucci TailGator** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:56 pm

Holy Mother of God. did that just happen? Did Crawford really just do that?

You cannot script this. At all.

Flip straight over to WTAM to listen to the Hammy Highlights!

by **Prosecutor** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:58 pm

Droobs is God. 8 for his last 9 with 3 dingers. Don't let him change his socks.

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:58 pm

The Pedroia injury was huge:

1. He's a dick
2. He makes the play on Hannahans leadoff single in the 8th.

Sure am glad the Tribe didn't read that... ;-) ;) :wink:

by **Jumbo** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:59 pm

That was a fucking awesome game.

by **RedDawg53** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:59 pm

I bet those Massholes are going to complain about the rain and that's how we beat them.

First team to 30 wins!

by **onlyindreams** » Mon May 23, 2011 11:59 pm

Bob Wickman would be proud of some of the saves Perez has had this season. :hide:

QFT.

Still can't believe Brantley laid off that 1-2 fastball. Especially after the questionable one before that.

And he got a piece of that nasty slider in on the thumbs.

And let's credit Manny Acta. Timely ejection.

Can STO put someone in the booth besides Hargrove? Another former Tribe personality with a little more life. Like Bob Feller.

by **peeker643** » Tue May 24, 2011 12:02 am

It's getting weird enough that while people are amazed that Crawford grounded into the 4-6-3 I was actually confident he'd hit something hard enough at somebody to turn it.

In a monsoon.

Surreal.

Win the series.

I was away and came back to CBS SPorts scoreboard with the Tribe on top, 3-2 and for a quick moment looked around to see if someone was just messing with me.

UN BELIEVABLE!!!!!

Almost thinking about getting in the car and driving to the spot I can get WTAM to hear Hammy's highlights. And yes, I can get WTAM in Huntsville, AL (650 mi away) on most nights.

I can't care less about who's in the booth, and what he is babbling about & if it makes any sense. Besides. I think the Tribe is undefeated when Grover is in the booth. He can babble all season long.

I can't wait to hear all the drunk calls on Chucks Last Call. And Chuck doing the Wahooe for da Bostonian. :nanner:

by **Dellucci TailGator** » Tue May 24, 2011 12:14 am

This team is nowhere near the 1995 team, but they make me feel like the 95 team did. Anything is possible.

by **dazindiansfanuk** » Tue May 24, 2011 12:31 am

Droobs AL Ranks

• 9th in AL in BA (.312)
• 4th in AL in HR (10)
• 4th in AL in RBI (34)
• 4th in AL in R (33)
• 5th in AL in SLG (.548)
• 7th in AL in OPS (.919)

As a freakin' shortstop..... amazing!

Uh...Tribe is 19-4. A lot of people are undefeated attending Tribe games.

Any New Englanders out there know the Boston station that does their version of Extra Innings? Was thinking of doing a search and listen to them whine about the rain and that it should of been called when they were up 2-1. Go Tribe!

If he's out for the next two games. Get your brooms out with the umbrellas.
