What do I win?

A lunch date with classy. 

Just got home from work in time to see the 7th inning meltdown.

Yikes. Maybe the bats can bail them out.

Go Tribe

un-fucking-believable...and I sure hope the reason Miller’s pitching was so shitty tonight is due to him still being hurt, cause if it isn’t, we’re in deeeeep shit 

Ramirez with another double, Lindor gets his 4th walk and Guyer is up with the bases loaded for the 3rd time tonight.  

He K's. One out. 

Kipnis up. 

Grounds into a dp. 

Sacks juiced with no outs, no runs. 

Kipnis worthless, just like our bullpen...this team has zero confidence right now.

IMO, the most embarrassing loss of the season so far...unreal.

That was a really bad loss.

This bullpen is awful.

Heard a stat this morning that last year's bullpen had an ERA in the high 2's and this year it's also 6:00. Goes to show you how a pen can have drastic swings from year to year.

Need that guy who puts the videos to the "My Heart Will Go On" song to make us a montage of Bryan Shaw and Joe Smith. Speaking of Joe Smith, a quick Google search revealed that he is married to CBS sideline/baseline reporter and former Miss Teen Ohio Allie LaForce. Good for him.

This bullpen is awful.

most definitely, but this was equally as frustrating...

The Indians loaded the bases with no one out in the eighth against Daniel Stumpf, but Brandon Guyer struck out and Jason Kipnis hit into an inning-ending double play.

@ vball....standard procedure with the Tribe. If I had a nickel for every time the Tribe has loaded the bases (over the years) with no out and came out with nothing, I could retire. They seem to have that down pat. Constant bitch from me.

Can they hold on today with a five run lead in the 5th?

6-0 through seven. Hopefully Bauer can go the distance so the craptastic pen doesn't have to make an appearance.

Bauer looking strong through seven

And he comes out of the dugout for the 8th.

And he comes out of the dugout for the 8th. 

Dude's got a rubber arm. He's only thrown 105 pitches. He's good for another 45.

He's at 108 pitches through 8. Wonder if he comes out to finish it?

He can’t. Tribe needs to get Allen work. It should be Cody today, regardless of score. Houston, Cubs, Houston. Gotta get the “good” arms some work.

Bauer with a gem today. Four hits, no runs, 10k's and no walks in 8 complete innings.  

And the ball is given to Allen, charged with protecting a six run lead. 

Trevor Bauer= STOPPER. Give me the ball boys. I got this. 

Allen gives up a lead off single, then strikes out the side. 

Ball game. 

Good bounce back win

Bauer was awesome

Party at Bill Freehan's

BRF will bring the foul ball he caught from him back in 1966. 

(Pitched by Sam McDowell and still on my mementos shelf)

Go Tribe. 

Off day tomorrow.
