Hit to the outfield wins it. Go Twins.
Er, Indians.
Jenks continues to be really fat.
Another near infield hit. Winning run at 3rd, 2 out.
Well isn't that fun.
I enjoy seeing the Sox implode. Yay Cleveland.

Cleveland seems to play the AL Central pretty tough.
Which is good, I think. Makes them a bit less pathetic. :)

A bit.
That must be why they’re only 2 games behind the Royals.
Cleveland played Chicago a lot early in the season, while they were bad
I mean, while Chicago was bad. Cleveland is still bad.
Juan Pierre
Please don’t let me have to listen to postseason nonsense from Joe Morgan about what a genius move adding a catalyst like Juan Pierre was.
He does all the little things right
"You're thinking too much. Just have fun." -- Bennie "The Jet" Rodriguez in Sandlot
He's a gamer
Gets his uniform dirty. I actually think it’s good to hear this stuff about Pierre. Usually it’s only white guys that get this cliched stuff.
Wow, Chris Perez' hairstyle in his Gameday picture is just beautiful.
Gross.

Nice double play there.
Just get out of this inning, Darryl #3.
Yeah, load the bases.
That’ll get ’em. :\

We gave them the old bases-loaded tease a few times the last series we played I think
Seemed to work pretty well.
Well looky there.
Worked again :)

If only KC could bring the pain on Texas in the bottom of the ninth
Think their AAA team could get there in time to save the day? It’s only a couple hours away in Omaha, right?
Kind of early to worry about Texas
The choices might be: at Rays, or home with Yankees, anyway.
Is this the guy that struck out with the bases loaded for Cleveland before?
With that dangerous .217 average?

Anytime your leadoff hitter has a .217 average
You are doing well.
Michael Brantley...
I’ve got him filed in my head as “dude who sucks for Cleveland,” but that’s all I got.
That doesn't really narrow it down.

Choo's not terrible.

And in baseball, fun names are important.

Ooh, a new Perez!

This one far less Deliverance-y.

It would have been great to have a Cleveland walk-off winner
But the Indians are the ……..Indians.

I think Alexi Ramirez gets my award for
Best Player with a Body Type Completely Unsuited for Playing Baseball.
Because he looks like this?

Lol
Now I’ve insulted him and I feel like he’s looking at me.
Really, Cleveland?
Brent f&$#ing Lillibridge? He’s like 10 years old.
"To tell the truth, I'm not excited to go to Cleveland, but we have to. If I ever saw myself saying I'm excited going to Cleveland, I'd punch myself in the face, because I'm lying." -Ichiro
He's a goldmine.
And so funny.
"To tell the truth, I'm not excited to go to Cleveland, but we have to. If I ever saw myself saying I'm excited going to Cleveland, I'd punch myself in the face, because I'm lying." -Ichiro
“Yesterday when I played, inside my head I said ‘I want to go home quickly,’ and I swung and I was able to get a hit because I wanted to go home. Today I thought, ‘I want to hurry up and get something to eat,’ and I swung and got a hit today.”
Ichiro quotes have become far more entertaining than the game

On his impressions of Korea: “It smells like garlic.”
Yeah, this game took a turn for the awful really quickly.
Stupid Cleveland.
"To tell the truth, I'm not excited to go to Cleveland, but we have to. If I ever saw myself saying I'm excited going to Cleveland, I'd punch myself in the face, because I'm lying." -Ichiro
On how he wants to become a pitcher at age 40: “Once I turn 40 I can become a pitcher. I’m kind of serious about it. But I’ll have to learn to throw a knuckleball. Right now, I could be a ‘normal’ pitcher,” who can top out at 95 mph with a fastball."
Haha, I wish he played for the Twins.
It would be so fun.
"To tell the truth, I'm not excited to go to Cleveland, but we have to. If I ever saw myself saying I'm excited going to Cleveland, I'd punch myself in the face, because I'm lying." -Ichiro
I'd sign him as a pitcher. After all, it's not all about winning:
“I want to be the kind of player who people feel it is worth paying the money to come out and watch. … When I meet players who are playing just to win, that angers me.”
And that, boys and girls, is why Joe Mauer is a terrible player.
Wanting to win? Eff that, give us a show!
