  1. Fan who caught the ball looked like he was going to have a heart attack.
  2. Twitter is a bunch of blithering idiots. That's not helping your case.
  3. Definitely not. Boston and Toronto didn't get where they were because of great starting pitching. Right - Cleveland have had to face the top three of the top five offenses in baseball, though. Oh for sure, just different animals both teams had to get through.
  4. Why the hell can't a team as good as the Cubs make other teams look completely hopeless? We're eight games better than the Indians and they haven't broken a sweat the entire playoffs. In all three series, the Cubs have struggled in certain portions. (The answer is baseball). Have the indians really faced as many tought pitchers as we have? Definitely not. Boston and Toronto didn't get where they were because of great starting pitching.
  5. So Heyward groundout and Javy K? Maybe a pop out for Heyward.
  6. Probably shouldn't have swung at the high fastball out of the zone on 1-0, KB.
  7. Awful nice of the Indians in the pen to get out of the way for Heyward. Oh wait, they didn't do that.
  8. Need to get runs off Bauer. Can't let him leave after 4 or 5 with only 1 run allowed.
  9. Showing Cleveland what's going to happen to them over the next four days.
  10. It would be nice if the Cubs just won a World Series game at Wrigley.
  11. For this team, I'm not so sure about that. What would you have put the Cubs odds of winning the World Series at going into the season, and how does that compare to the odds of winning 3 straight games against another championship-caliber team? Probably fairly close. But at least I've locked in league championship and getting to see my team in the World Series. 538 has the Cubs as a 15% chance to win the Series now. For comparison's sake, Fangraphs had the Cubs at 17.4% before they played a game this year. The Dodgers were the only other team above 10%.
  12. So as long as we wasn't driving, recreational cocaine use at 3am mid season is cool? It's not a good life choice but I don't see how it makes his death any less deserving of sympathy really. They said they don't know who was driving when the boat crashed but even if he wasn't driving at that time, I'd bet anything he was driving at some point in the night. And if not that night, then likely countless other times as well.
  13. Why not PH Schwarber for Heyward? I don't care if it's a 5 run game, let the dude hit.
  14. Only four hits/walks and then a homer ties the game. Joe Buck can feel it coming!
  15. Cleveland had 16 home games in September. They drew less than 20K in 8 of them including 5 of less than 15K. They had a 3 game series the end of August against the Twins where they couldn't draw 12K to any of the games.
  16. Perez would have been the second out but then they probably don't walk Naquin. Who knows what would have happened then.
