That's probably bc tickets to the ALDS are cheaper than the ALCS or World Series. Cheap fucking owner.
Maybe it wasn't sold out! Also the travel expenses for them would far eclipse the ticket prices anyway.

DP sure helped the pitch count if Kluber needs to go 7+ after Pedroia used 7 and he had thrown 15 and only had one out!

Yes, defense is critical. On the flip side, twice there was an Indian on 2nd when a base hit went to CF and I was expecting a close play at home both times, and it wasn't either time. Bad defense also skyrockets the critical pitch count along with walks(which also cause concentration issues and bad defense).

If TBS is going to have that strike zone box at the bottom right corner, can they at least show the fucking pitch count for the pitcher?

Ever since TBS got playoff coverage (2007 was the first year I believe) they have been god awful, and they haven't improved at all.

This is a must win game for the tribe imo.

Also, the lineup needs to force Price out of this game to make the Sox use their pen. Every ounce of wasted energy counts.

Agreed on both, just blew a nice opportunity too.

Bill Simmons ‏@BillSimmons 11m11 minutes ago I love that they scored Ramirez's infield chopper that Holt butchered as a hit just so Price could get screwed with 4 ER.

As a fan, why the fuck would anyone care? Down 4-0 regardless.

I was looking for the channel for the game and couldn't find it. Then I checked in here and saw like_that's comment on TBS. Thanks! Found the channel. I'm wearing my Indians hat and smirking at the many more Red Sox fans here in GA.

Go Tribe.

That's current-age Bill Simmons for you. Because Boston teams won championships over the past couple decades, he's a whiny, entitled bitch who constantly looks for anything to cry about.

He has always been a whiny entitled bitch. Just became worse when all of his teams started winning titles. I'm happy his show isn't doing well.

Why was Holt trying to get the DP with a throw to 1st? He would have had plenty of time to get the lead runner with a force on C Perez at 2B had he fielded the ball.

Tribe looking good. The crowd is a littler more sober today. Perhaps they are all still hungover like me....but I'm forcing them down none the less.

Go Tribe

Otero comes in and shuts the door. 8 scoreless innings for the Tribe after Kluber allows 2 on no outs in the 8th.

Ha ha! I'm going to a bar to look for any Tribe fans.

I'm sure I'll see some Red Sox fans, though.

Was at a bar and obviously cheering on the Indians but I'm not an Indians "fan".

The dude sitting next to me was 35'ish and a Sox fan. He was so god damn annoying. Every single play he was Sox biased.

By the end of the game I turned into a huge Indians fan just to annoy this guy. He fucking sucked. Go Indians
