surprised Diaz didn't call a balk to finish off the game early.

Nice job Vinnie...what was Beckham swinging at? Looked like Gomes there.

Huh?










What? reread my fuckin post. I said it was a good choice. I'd send him out again for a third inning.

not sure if it was talked about on here during the Detroit series...but did you guys notice how many lefties Leyland kept bringing out...especially the first night? They are built to give the tribe fits.

Lulz at me. My browser crashed and when I reloaded it your post posted after the triple. I thought it was sarcastic. I agree with you though, Id go a third, until a runner gets aboard.

It is approaching the time of the night where I have to decide if I should be productive at work in the morning or should I watch this game?

I don't see the Tribe scoring for a couple innings at the earliest. Most likely I'm staying up to watch a loss.

Going to bed boys. Check in with ya in the AM.

need to hold them (obviously), for probably 2 more innings since we have 8-9-1 up next inning.

That's 100% on Sipp.

But he was out.

SMH....again. And Manning is full of crap too. Wally Bell was not blocked out in seeing the play.

Sipp was a great bunt, but the guy is out...

Glad I stayed up for that. I thought Sipp was gonna go all OG on him.

Come on CP. Gotta be big here.

I get what your saying, but this crew has fucked the tribe all night.

and a good ump would have been in position to make the right call.

bullshit.

in any case, the play was in front of first base. If he is blocked, you make the initial call so runners dont wander. Then you ask the home plate umpire if he saw a tag. He fucked up alllll over the place on that call.

SMH.....If I were the manager of the Indians I would've been thrown out already. It kind of pisses me off the Acta hasn't gotten thrown out yet.


These umpires are pathetic!

Sipp is inside the bag...the umpire is looking at the bag...the play happened at the bag...he missed the fucking call.
