Tribe @ Mariners (Roll Tribe Series Thread)

  • TBone14
    Double plays killing rallys. Offense is off since the break. Need a spark. Looking like 3.5 half back and scary time. Tigers have two more with the White Sox and then go back home and we head to Texas this weekend.
  • TBone14
    Maybe Games is the spark. He has the big homer and has hit the ball hard all night. Let him catch and Santana play first. Chiz and Reynolds can draw straws for who gets to go 0-4 with 2 Ks and a GIDP at 3rd tomorrow.

    Indians have had leadoff runner on last 3 innings. Never gotten to 2nd base. Swisher got rung up on an awful strike 3 in the 7th.

    It is mostly the players. Last chance here in the 9th.
  • TBone14
    Leadoff single for Reynolds. Pinch runner.

    Lonnie of course not bunting. Probably a double play.
  • TBone14
    Seeing eye single....somehow gets through the infield. Indians at the corners nobody out.
  • hasbeen
    Stubbs. Lol.
  • TBone14
    Unfucking real. 5-4-2-6 double play.
  • TBone14
    That is some of the worst base running you will ever see.
  • TBone14
    Another dagger loss. Had Wilhelmsen on the ropes and just pissed it away. I can't believe what I just saw.
  • TBone14
    For those reading this waking up Wednesday morning...don't bother with the highlights.

    Back to back singles by Reynolds and Chisenhall of all people to start the 9th. Gomes hits a weak grounder to 3rd...he checks pinch runner Stubbs and goes to 2nd for the force. Stubbs gets caught in no man's land for no fucking reason. He hesitated about 3 times. He is out. And then Bourn strikes out looking on another ball outside.

    Stick a fork in them. We will be lucky to be in 3rd place at the end of the season.
  • wes_mantooth
    Yuck.

    Getting beat by teams like Minny and Seattle...fuck. We all knew they are posers when it comes to playing with the big boys, but this shit is unacceptable.

    Thank god I didn't stay up to watch-I hate going to bed pissed off...thanks for the recap.

    That was one of the more dejecting finishes to a game I can ever remember.

    The Indians are a .500 talent level team. They have been since the begin gin of the season. They just happened to be in the weakest division in baseball.

    I quit reading after it said even the best teams lose 30 games.
  • Laley23
    Yeah. The best teams lose 60-70 games.

    Sorry, meant to say the BEST team lost over 30 games

    The best modern era baseball team EVER...lost 46 games. The best team year in year out typically loses about 60..and like Laley said...really good teams lose 70.

    It was just that 30 was ridiculously low. Not to nitpick. The reason I didn't finish it was more due to the fact that I scrolled down it appeared to be the length of War and Peace...and my morning 'reading time' at work was wrapping up.

    I thought they said the other day the best team lost 34? My bad. I'll just take it out all together. I am a terrible writer because I always research ERAS and batting averages and stuff and skip that lol. Anyways, it's long bc it is a rant and lets be real, there is a lot to rant about right now
