All of a sudden, the strike zone has become a moving target.

Which sucks worse? The HP umpire or the Tribe offense? Both are tuuuuurrible.

I bet we go down 4-0 here and THEN score 3 runs to lose 4-3.

I've been attempting to figure out how to tune Matt out. It has been easier to figure out how to tune out my wife, actually.

GQ did their top and bottom five last year, gave Underwood/Manning 4th worst. Also gave the Reds second worst. They definitely got #1 right, fucking Hawk Harrelson.

Its tough, cause you dont want to hear, but if you arent 100% focused on the game you NEED to listen and always look up when he says something. Such a conundrum.

Random, but Mark Cuban is a BOSS!

I went to many MudShark parties in my days at IU. Those boys know how to party.

I have to admire Sizemore and Cabrera's committment to making all 3 outs that inning.

The thing with the Reds is that you never know who you are going to get. I really like Thom, but he doesn't do that many games. Hawk is the man for sure.

Wow. Crushed.

Only good news for the Tribe is that Phil Coke is in for the Tigers out of the pen. Hopefully he blows it.

Like you said, if we do score, it will probably be 3 and we will lose 4-3, at which point, why even bother. Just K then ground into a DP so I can go to bed.

Make this guy throw a couple strikes. Maybe he will walk in a couple.
