  I know thats what they were saying. But it really just looked like the flap an the impact still caused the damage. Either way, fucking HPB again.

  Eh, he had a little bit of skin off of his cheek (far enough over to not be the flap, IMO) and a little swelling on that side of his nose. Sure looked like it got him some.

  2 innings. 2 hits and 3 free passes. 5 left. Yuck
• Laley23

  

  Pomeranz has 95 Ks in 77 IP. Wow.
• Laley23

  

  nice bounce back 1-2-3 inning. Getting Bautista and Lind.

  Move him to Akron. I've seen mens slowpitch softball teams with more baseball talent than some teams in A ball.

  Sizemore f'in sucks...
• TBone14

  

  Good approach by both Santana and Sizemore. Got to 2 strikes and shortened their swings and put the ball in play. Good piece of hitting, guys!

  Just terrible. Im still giving Santana a 2 strike pass on his swings based on his rookieness. But Sizemore, get the fuck with it man.

  They try to hit home runs with every damn swing. Problem is, they don't really hit em. Santana does run into about 1 a week, and it is usually meaningful atleast. Sizemore? SMH. Who knows.

  Sizemore has always done that....he will never change.
  
  My epic movie is over so now I can focus on this ass whooping.
• TBone14

  

  The rout is on. 3-0 Jays with 2 on and the top of the order coming up. Should be 6-0 before this inning is over.
• BR1986FB

  So much for "showcasing" McAllister.

  LoL. I was just thinking, we could package this guy and Sizemore to Boston for a pot of Clam Chowder and box of baseballs.

  ok, i have only watched this inning, but this pitcher looks like he has the stuff of the dreaded "AAAA" pitcher. nice job getting out of it with the game still within reach though

  I'm thinking you might want to watch the sequel to that movie versus this. Fuckers had their opportunities early.

  He doesn't throw very hard at all. Fastball is really only averaging 89-90. He did run a couple up there at 92, but I wouldn't call anything electric tonight.
• wes_mantooth

  

  well, at least Buck is still crappy as usual....all you can as for is consistency...
  
  speaking of that....how fucking slow is laporta? When we have hafner and laporta in the game,we are the slowest team in MLB history
• TBone14

  

  Drop off the piano Laporta. Geez man. I didn't even think he was going to try and throw him out.
• TBone14

  

  Tribe strand another at 3rd base. Not our day today so far.

  I want to see LaPorta and Victor Martinez in a race. 100 yard dash would take them about 2 minutes lol.

  Underwood is such a tool. My God he says something every inning that makes me cringe it is so stupid.
• Laley23

  

  McAllister got a few up to 94. He threw much harder than I thought he would. But for the most part, I wouldnt mind parting with his "stuff" Though we probably are stuck with it now.

  yeah, he is not good, but I think it seems worse than it is...just because the city of Cleveland is blessed with some great play by play other than Matt. Also, I dread hearing Joe Tait's replacement....anyone know who it is going to be....if they ever play again that is?
• TBone14

  

  I have had MLB Extra Innings for the last 3 years and I watch a ton of baseball. He is bottom 5 no doubt.
