    Hamilton said the same thing about cc when he did it. And chapman does deserve it. If you want to throw a 100 mph fast ball at someone's head you deserve it

    Difference is, you and I can say that. He's a professional on tv, he can't. You can't say shit like that. He looked like a tool in the situation.

    Is Yan Gomes hurt?

    LOL.

    I heard him say it on the radio and I was flabbergasted that he would say such a thing. I like Hammy and think he is one of the best in the game....but you can't say stuff like that.


    The losing streak is over! Steakbreaker!:thumbup:

    Had an awesome time at the stadium last night....those west side market italian sausages are the bomb.com.

    Kind of a funny game....the Tribe had some retarded baserunning mistakes that killed innings and the reds couldn't score with the bases loaded and no outs.
  • Dr Winston O'Boogie
    A nice end to the five game skid. It is great seeing Giambi making a difference. Tito's so big on having that guy around and I can see why. Also, I really enjoyed the way Masty battled back from the bases loaded no out situation in the 6th. That's takes patience and guts.

    Go Tribe!

    Masterson really has developed into an ace.....the guy was bringing some nasty stuff.

    Masterson is developing into the ace we hoped he'd be. He's a guy that you expect to win every time he starts.

    The Reds not scoring with bases loaded and no outs is nothing new, they're very good at that.

    Also had an awesome time...minus the Italian sausages but add beer.

    Was definitely a fun/funny game. I don't care that Vinnie isn't his old self...he has a fucking beard and looks glorious. I was moist.

    Well, hopefully we don't need the bullpen, cause even vinnie have up the run yesterday. But im liking the team the last few night. Rebounded well.

    Just don't blow a 7-0 lead at home.

    Nice to see the tribe snapping out of it the last couple of nights. I am still pissed at those losses to Boston lol

    Boston and Detroit are the two teams I hate losing to the most.

    The Indians will have played 20 games before getting their next day off. I feel like that isn't normal...
  • wes_mantooth
    You can't stop Nick hagadone....you only hope to contain him.

    Reds had a run of 20 straight earlier in the year, could definitely tell they were worn down toward the end of it.

    Maybe every team has to go through that type of stretch this year. If that is the case, I am glad the Tribe is getting it over with early. Also glad they are getting some tough teams out of the way early too.

    Probably. Reds have a 2nd one later on.

    Seems like August yields a huge number of games without a day off.

    I have to admit I'm feeling pretty good about the Tribe this year and right now. Tribe gets a split with one of the best teams in the National League...I think that's a pretty good measuring stick. The team could have easily taken 3 games in Boston, but caught a bad break with some injuries in the back end of the pen. It's easy to overblow a couple of late inning losses as the team adapts to a new 'order' out there. The thing that is impressive is the depth that this team has, not only in the pen but in all phases of the game. I'm not about to crown them A.L. champs, or even Central champs, but I think they'll be in it till the end.

    I have to admit I chuckled listening to the posts of Reds fans, who , despite the record of the team, rip on their players and their manager. You'd think the team was the KC Royals. The Reds are my NL team, and I root for them when they are not playing my Tribe....you know...O-H-I-O and all that....
