3-2 Indians. Good thing we've been on such a good run lately, or else this could have become real close.

You got that right. When our lead was down to 6 1/2 we were panicking. Where would it be now, if the Sox didn't turn things around?

Coco Crisp HRs. This game's quickly getting out of reach. Especially, with the Indians' bullpen now in the game.

I hate cereal.

 

Damn Tigers...we had to knock them into a slump right before they played Cleveland.

We can't really b**** about the Tigers, because they were just awful when we played them also.

Supposedly they were actually playing fairly well before they ran into out pitching Juggernaut...we just kinda knocked them into a tailspin.

Ozzie's sure going with the starters day in, day out now. I'm surprised that Everett wasn't given a day off.

Brandon Inge K's with the bases loaded to end the top of the 7th. He's left 7 guys on base today.

I'm just happy to see Pods in there against a lefty.

me too, I hate the constant tinkering with match ups. Let the guy get on base.

I'm surprised AJ gets another day off

Free Brian Anderson!!

good thing the Sox are hot right now, otherwise Cleveland would be that object in the mirror that is closer than it appears...

Cleveland wins.

I'm surprised AJ gets another day off

Probably exhausted from dealing with a newborn and a mother

 

I'm very surprised that no one in the outfield is getting another day off. Ozzie must really mean it when he says he wants to get this division clinched.

It feels funny to me to criticize Ozzie for not giving his starters enough rest, but I really thought he'd mix in some guys like Anderson and Gload into the lineup once during this KC series to give Everett and others a rest. BTW, what's the weather expected to be at the Cell tonight? Any chance of a rain out?

Looks like the weather will head south of us.

So with all you guys at the ballpark, am I gonna be all by myself here tonight? (Anyone bring a laptop and a wireless connection? That'd rule!)

I will be here awhile. Let me know if any of you need play by play.

Well, I guess I'm wrong in suggesting tonights game would draw 25,000+. Camera shots opening the game showed a sparse crowd.

 

Looks like we'll all have to endure attendance bulls*** for one more game.

Well, let's see if Freddi-o can get off to a good start again.

Well...leadoff single on a 3-1 pitch...not a great way to start.

 

C'Mon Freddy, settle down quick tonight.

And a couple groundouts turn into a force out and a double play....good work getting past inning 1 without a scrape Freddie.

 

Freddie gets past inning 1 and my confidence in this game just goes through the roof.
