I predict it's unpredictable. I will guess Baez gets going...and Bryant.

Big game from whoever on the Indians that is patient and not trying to pull or hit HR. Hendricks will use that to his advantage.

30 mph wind might keep pitchers from having control to not miss over the plate

It's official. Santana will lead off and play left field for the 2nd time in his career.

Santana 7
Kipnis 4
Lindor 6
Napoli 3
J Ram 5
Lonnie 9
Perez 2
Naquin 8
Tomlin 1

I like our pinch hitting and pinch running options with CoCo, Davis, Guyer, Martinez.

I suppose Gomes could pinch hit but he doesn't have an AB this postseason...he would have to be the last option off the bench I think.

I'll wait and see if he is going to make the same calls for the Tribe, but I have no idea wtf he is seeing right now on some of those strikes. Regardless, a run should have been scored this inning, fucking Lindor.

Strike 2 to Napoli was fucking horrible. That was 6 inches outside.

Fuck...that could have been an inning.

Hey Superman can I fucking complain about the shit ass strike zone already? If he's consistent fine, but how the fuck are you supposed to swing at pitches that far out of the strike zone?

Those calls to Santana and Napoli were terrible and completely changed the at bats. But lindor needs to not be a dumbass
