No Clase on the road in a tie game. Playing it by the book.

Well we are making the Phillies look better blowing their own six run lead against the Mets.

Comedy Show with this team. Now we have to try to score against Clase.

How can a team this sloppy possibly expect to win in the postseason?

Of course he has to walk...best thing to sustain a rally.

Worst thing he can do is hit a two rum homer. Jesus.

Anderson on pace for 54 errors now.

Turned around a 98 mph fastball, so still at least can hit a fastball when he's hunting for one.

Good question. Balta might go off on you...but I'm not sure how we are supposed to recall their past conversationally? The Cleveland Baseball Team? Cleveland of the American League? After a little research, not even sure we can even call them Cleveland, either. "At Buffalo, a delegation from the nearby Mohawk and Seneca tribes opposed the party's entrance into the Western Reserve, claiming it as their territory, but they waived their rights on the receipt of goods valued at $1,200. The expedition then coasted along the shore of Lake Erie and landed at the mouth of Conneaut Creek on July 4, 1796, which they named Port Independence. Nearby Native Americans were upset at the encroachment on their land, but they were appeased with gifts of beads and whiskey and allowed the surveys to proceed.[1]: 11  General Cleaveland coasted along the shore with a surveying party and landed at the mouth of the Cuyahoga River on July 22, 1796. He ascended the bank and determined that the spot was a favorable site for a city, with the river on the west and Lake Erie on the north.[1]: 12  He had it surveyed into town lots, and the employees named the place Cleaveland in his honor. There were four settlers the first year, and growth was slow initially, reaching only 150 inhabitants in 1820.[1]: 12  Cleaveland went home to Connecticut after the 1796 expedition and never returned to Ohio or the city that bears his name.[citation needed] He died in Canterbury, Connecticut, where he is also buried, but a statue of him stands in the Cleveland Public Square.[1]: 13  The settlement of "Cleaveland" eventually became known as "Cleveland". One theory is that Cleaveland's surveying party misspelled the name on their original map.[3] More than likely though, the story goes back to the Cleveland Advertiser, a local paper in the early 1800s.[4] They could not fit the words “Cleaveland Advertiser” on their masthead, so they dropped the extra “a” to make room and the name stuck.[5]" source: wikipedia

Yikes Tigers now 8-20, only four hits in a shutout loss at Oakland.

Joe Kelly has pitched eight different times with playoff teams...

If we haven't already seen the best put of Lynn. Plus you're talking three Hall of Famers and Steve Avery/Jason Schmidt.

Yeah but still not an earned run...down to a 0.93 ERA.

First Joe Kelly outing coming up...

Gavin finally atoned after sporting a .125 average the last stretch of games.

Luis Castillo and Tyler Mahle were just put on the market by the Reds...fwiw.

8 game hitting streak for Robert now.

Plesac has given up 10 ER in last 8 2/3rds over two starts. Indians somehow 13th in pitching and 3rd in offense. Talk about a reversal of their normal modus operandi.

Is that what also happened to Vaughn last year? Maybe STOP doing that so players will comfortable and can concentrate on their hitting instead of being constantly stressed out about making a mistake on defense.

No idea which one has any value at this point...Jimenez to a larger payroll team taking a calculated risk they can actually keep him healthy or simply limit him to DH.

Please play Engel everyday or bring back Billy Hamilton. It's that bad.

7/23 White Sox errors against Cleveland this year. Getting behind hitters, finally gets the K.

Putting added stress on Kopech... And likely leading to an early bullpen game or might even be pulled early if he gets to well over 30 pitches this inning.

When's the last time the worst defensive team in the AL went anywhere in the postseason? Kopech needs to pick up the pace. Also seems to be on an 85 pitch limit...at least so far.

Quintana shutting down the vaunted Dodgers through 5 2/3, sporting a nifty 2.73 ERA.
