I take it the first tiebreaker for ties is H2H, therefore need to tie CWS for the 4th spot?

I believe so.

So Pirates pitcher walks the first 3, while only throwing 3 strikes total. Not anywhere near the zone. And our most patient hitter, Carlos Santana, decides to swing away at the first pitch. Predictable GIDP. Reyes followed suit with a come-backer. Unbelievable impatience on display. So bad.

And now with that ^^^^^ said, we are down 2-1.

We need Tito back just for some discipline. Lindor with about his 22nd complete no fucks given base running error. He’s been a liability on the bases all season. Just awful.

Based on Lindor’s lack luster season, I won’t be so upset when he’s gone. 

DeShields breaks up the no-hitter. 

We’ve got two more at bats to do something about this.

I wouldn’t go that far lol. He’s still an amazing player and helps us win. Even in his bad season, this year, he’s hovering around T-10 in fWAR

Tribe ties it up 3-3 with more late inning mojo.

Unreal stretch. This applies to each game, at this point. Not just the season...

I have Dish Network and they are in a dispute with Fox Regional Sports so no Reds,Indians,Cavs or BlueJackets for me. I do get Pittsburgh ATT Sportsnet so instead of listening to Hammy I tuned into Joe Block and Bob Walk and if you have never heard them call a game you are missing out. They started off the broadcast with stats and hyperbole that would make you think that the Pirates have a trip to the World Series all but sewn up. And when the Pirate bullpen blew the 9th inning lead they were in utter disbelief. I've watched plenty of Pirate games and I'm sure I've seen their bullpen do this at least 15 times.

We have moved up to the 4-seed and would currently play the 5-seed Yankees in the playoffs. The Blue Jays are making a run at the Yankees and are currently only a game behind them. Playing Buffalo in the playoffs sounds about right for 2020.

I think the away team should get game 2 last at bats in the first round.

Yes, they would all be in Cleveland. I just meant how wierd it would be to play a city that didn't even have a franchise 3 months ago.

Just think how wierd it will be if Buffalo wins the world series.

Why? There needs to be a reward for being better. All 3 games is perfect.

The tribe is 17-11 at home and 17-13 on the road. I don't think that it matters if we bat first or last.

I guess I’m one of the few who thinks it’s a huge advantage to have the last at bat.
