At least a few of the Browns players showed up. Seems like they "get it".

Seems like they might have brought Carrasco back too soon.

Unfortunately, the streak had to end sometime. It appears tonight will be that night. Still an amazing run, with what, 4 or 5 straight walkoff wins?

Love your attitude. Tonight was a bit of a buzzsaw. With Price looking like he never wanted a win so badly and Carrascco coming off the DL.

Atleast Germano looks sharp out of the pen today.

Last two Tribe loses at The Jake, Carrasco was pitching. Coincidence? I think not. I'll be happy if I don't have to see he or Germano ever again.

Ready for tomorrow, let's build that streak back up!

So how long until Lonnie gets the call up? Hannahan has really plummeted back to earth.

That's what I want to know. But you know me, I love to hate Hannahan.

Carrasco is a shit pitcher. Hopefully the brass figures this out when Talbot comes back.

Well, if we were going to lose one in this series, it was this one. Definitely a mismatch of starting pitchers. It was the first game in a long time that I didn't think we had much of a chance. I like today's much better. Get this one and win another series. If Carrasco continues to pitch like this, he may be the odd man out when Talbot comes back. White looks like the real thing, and deserves to stay if he continues to do well.

Not a good pitching matchup last night. Today is going to be just as tough to score runs especially with Grady out of the lineup. Hopefully we get some timely hitting. Fortunately the Mariners are coming to Cleveland this weekend.

Edit: forgot it was a day game. Awesome!

I'm sure I'll be getting a Tampa "smack" e-mail this morning even though I told the guy that I expected a loss last night with the pitching matchup.

God, I hope not because if that's the case he has my work e-mail and I don't want him blowing out the servers with excessive "hahahahahahahahahaha's" or "lolololololololol's".

I'd counter with asking the "fan" when he started following the team. He'd probably respond by saying their expansion year 2008, or the first yr they were ever relevant. Much like the current situation with the Indians, the Rays can't put butts in the seats unless the Yanks or Saux are in town because of all the retirees from up north around Tampa. I atleast like to think its cause of the crappy dome and how far the Trop is across the bay.
