Live Thread: Cavs @ Hawks
2016-10-10With the Tribe and the Cavs playing at the same time, we’re a little disorganized, so excuse the late post on the live thread. The Cavs are in Atlanta tonight, and no regular season starters are playing. Felder McRae, Dahntay Jones, James Jones, and Cory Jefferson round out the starting lineup, and expect the action to be intense with the Hawks’ starters mostly playing, and the Cavs’ camp personnel fighting for one or two roster spots. We’ll forgive you if you’re checking in between innings. Go Cavs! Go Tribe!
I would have loved to see the Tribe walk over to the Sox dugout and salute Ortiz. Would have been an epic sports moment

Amen. Cleveland rolling “All In”!
Hopefully the bullpen got all of its jitters out of the way in this series.
Well, they get four days off now to rest up…
Seems like everyone was doing what I was doing, watching the Tribe keep this going! Go Tribe! Go Cleveland!
So great.

Great find!
Tank Pestak.
Fan freaking tastic!
They are just reinforcing the “Strength in Numbers” mantra.
Who is the skinny guy?
I almost choked on my drink. LOL
Very exciting…

Here’s the real question of the night. How the hell did Coco make it over the wall? It didn’t seem like he put that much on it. Only one possibility: God Loves Cleveland.
That wall is really really close though… the Benintendi “double” that scored the Sox first run would have been a shallow pop fly in 29 other parks…
Looks like Mamba did have a rough night shooting from the box score…
EVIL EXCELLENT P[OINT ABOUT LUCROY ( GO FISHING )—NATE AGREE WITH YOU ON MAMBA ( DOING TOO MUCH ) BUT THAT CAN BE CORRECTED
Good to finish it off tonight and get their rotation, such as it is, in order for the ALCS.
Postseason baseball rules and also destroys me. Great sweep. Summer of Cols is still in effect.
DAMN I CAN BREATHE AGAIN —–NOT QUITE THE FEELING OF CAVS WINNING THE CHAMPIONSHIP BUT DAMN ” IN THE LAND ” IT FEELS GOOD

McRae just tries to do too much. Can’t play within the confines of the offense.
Hahahbaa. Whatever. Preseason is meaningless.

THINK LIGGINS STAYS BECAUSE OF HIS VERSATALITY—-WHICH LEAVES 2 MORE SPOTS —DO THE CAVS WANT TO KEEP ONE OF THE BIGS THEN I SAY JOSEPH BECAUSE OF EXPERIENCE STAY ALONG WITH HIS BROOKLYN BUDDY BROWN–IF THEY DON’T KEEP ANY BIGS I SAY LIGGINS / BROWN / JONES
Cody just can’t throw strikes right now…
Allen walks him anyway… I think Tito’s gotta make the move to Otero here…
Otero time?
Pedroia swings at ball four… full count…
At least Lonnie cut it off and held him to a single…
Bradley line drive to right to get a single.
Of course Jackie Bradley gets his first hit of the series… C’mon Cody! Get it!
ONE OUT AWAY!
Liggins just seems like he does a lot of things ok and nothing well. I don’t know. Maybe he needs to concentrate on 3 and D.
Allen strikes out Leon!
TWO DOWN!!!!!
GET THE DEFIB READY FOR NOMAD
ONE DOWN!
1 down! 2 to go!
Cody Allen back on the mound, starts with an 0-2 count.
Allen back out there… LET’S GO TRIBE!
DON’T THINK DOUGLAS MAKES THE TEAM——YOUNG GUYS ARE COMPETING FOR SPOTS –GOING TO MAKE IT TOUGH FOR COACHES TO DECIDE WHO STAYS
Three outs to go!
Sweatty Palms time at Fenway! We go to the bottom of the ninth!
Here we go… bottom of the ninth is next…
