Royals/Tribe: Killing time before football season

• Crimson streak

  

  2 innings 2 double plays way to go tribe offense!
• ts1227

  

  30K+ here tonight I would say. Reception for Thome was loud, he tipped his helmet to the crowd before stepping in.
  
  Also, they have us all signs to hold up that say Welcome THome

  Why is Phelps playing? Anyone know?

  Kipnis is on the DL and Valbuena blows.
  
  Only other option is Donald. Who I would prefer.
• iclfan2

  

  Yea I meant because Donald is on the team. He should probably be starting at all times with Kipnis out...
• Crimson streak

  

  Ubaldo has actually pitched a great game while the tribe offense continues to blow

  Hannahan ties it 1-1...

  Looks more like 40,000 on TV. Looks almost packed.
  
  Jimenez has been really impressive tonight. But our line up wouldn't scare too many people. Hannahan has been money tonight.
• BR1986FB

  2-1 Tribe on a bases loaded walk to Zeke..
• royal_k

  

  Phelps is NOT ready to play up here.
• royal_k

  

  Hosmer is a good hitter....they have a bunch of good young hitters.
• BR1986FB

  Hold your breath...it's time for Rage
• wes_mantooth

  

  In other news..............Matt Underwood is still awful at his job. He almost did a homerun call in the 8th with a pop up to medium right.
• BR1986FB

  Here we go...1st guy gets on
• BR1986FB

  Two outs, man on 3rd...
• wes_mantooth

  

  man...that guy just had two meatballs to hit...thank god he fouled them straight back.
• wes_mantooth

  

  lol...smoked it, but we lucked out...Go Tribe!!
• BR1986FB

  Whew ! I was gonna say if he blew that for Ubaldo after such a nice outing. C'mon Twins !
• Crimson streak

  

  I wish the twins would actually do something
• royal_k

  

  Yeah, that last one was smoked right at Choo. Hosmer's was smoked right at Fukuhome. Rage was making it scary.
  
  Ubaldo pitched like an ace tonight. He had much better location. Hope he keeps this up.

  There were a bunch of empties between the people. 35 is probably accurate for the asses in seats attendance. 41,337 is what they listed for tix sold.

  Hey, it's HS football season! Have to go with the alma mater.
  
  They are now 1-0 since I changed it.
• OQB

  

  What a great game! I had the best seats I have ever had for a tribe game...5 rows back from homeplate/ dugout.
  
  Only thing I would've changed is Thome getting a hit....he was trying too hard to jack one out, but man I loved seeing him back in an Indians uniform, love that guy!
  
  Not sure.attendance, but it was packed!!
