And Tuesday...Rocchio Antonacci play will stick in everyone's memory since that would have been 3 1/2 games up in a practical sense

Hey Royals, walking 6 of our guys in the 9th last Wednesday evening would have been a fine thing to do.

5 runs on 1 hit

6 batters reached without even swinging the bat

that's crazy.

CLE is never losing a game again.

This is the luckiest fucking team I've ever seen. KC literally forgot how to throw even a single strike.

Honestly, I wouldn't be shocked at this point if the Tribe won it all. Sometimes it's just clear that it's your year, especially when you get 5 years worth of fucking breaks in one season.

Weird, I don't see the Guardians pitchers having trouble throwing strikes.

If 1983 White Sox didn't patent Winnin' Ugly this would be it 43 years later

Cleveland sucks, they were gifted the series in Boston by those corpses. Today Pearson gifted them another game. KC will put a game together and take one of the next two, tomorrow. Sox need to win though too

Pretty tired of hearing how much Cleveland sucks. They know how to win and their manager is fantastic.

It is easy to be a good manager when you have the pitching they do

23-10 if @caulfield12’s post is correct. That’s not all luck.

Hopefully Wacha can throw a complete game shutout tomorrow. f*** it - no hit em. Perfect game… anything!

And our Sox better beat the piss outta the Rockies again and then again!!!! LFGWS AND ROYALS!!!

That blown game last Friday is coming back to bite us

you would think after Vaughn, the Sox would learn not to play guys out of position. How can you claim to care so much about fundamentals and defense and then run Sam out there for an entire season. Once the Sox locked up first place for 4 weeks+, a decision should've been made, whether it's using a rotating DH or trading someone

You see Vogt regularly pinch hit and pinch run for his catchers. Yet Venable just refuses to do so. That s%*# cost us a game in Houston.

on the road

with a supposed bad mound

that's why Pearson a big time first round bust

He will throw a no hitter and Guardians will win 1-0 in extras

A's just went up 3-1. AL West race isn't quite over yet.

Lol, no

They're like the 2010s Twins, they make the playoffs only to not do anything of note. Same will happen this season

and they're both either walking or getting key hits

Hedges homer tonight

lucky if career ops is over 600

That would be really cool if it mattered at all, Salvy

Pearson has now given up 12 runs in his last 4.1 innings. Sure sounds like a 9th inning guy.

It might make them warm up Smith at least

Because they fixed the mound. Duh.

That mistake by Venable was the worst blunder by him this year

That doesn't explain Hoffman coming in and walking another 2 guys on nothing but balls.

Hedges 190/568 career hitter

this year 100 ops points higher
