Live Thread: Tribe vs Jays (plus Cavs @ Bulls)
2016-10-14
As CtB commenter NOMAD noted, the Cavs and Tribe both start at eight, and with the Cavs’ starters sitting out this one, it might be a lonely place here. So I’m going to be livethreading the Indians along with the Cavs. Lets hope they go scrub fuego, and that the Tribe bats are en fuego. Go Cleveland!
Anyone else on CtB watchin the tribe?
Kluber 13.1 IP, no runs, 2-0 in his first two postseason starts.
Sauces!
Ddkdjdjjrnd
Easiest ninth inning for Allen all playoffs!
Big win. With the state of their rotation, you have to resort to some pretty unlikely scenarios for them to win the series if they don’t win both games that Kluber starts.
WINDIANS!!!!
Allen strikes out Saunders looking!
Klubes had 6Ks in 6.1 innings… Miller had 5 in 1.2… Amazing
And PBR
Man, Miller was hands down the best FA pickup this year…
Trade
Right… that’s what I meant
REALLY good. When did Cleveland suddenly decide they wanted competent sports franchises? Summer of 2014?
Miller is giving me a flashback to Paul Assenmacher against Jay Buhner in the ’95 ALCS — except he throws about 10 mph harder.
Assenmacher is such an unfortunate name.
Miller!
Are there a lot of blue jays in Toronto?
From Wiki, Blue Jays was the winner in a name-the-team contest. And all of Toronto’s teams have blue as a color, going back to the Argonauts in the 19th century.
Some interesting trivia: MLB awarded Toronto an expansion team after a deal for a Toronto group to buy and relocate the Giants was blocked in federal court.
except raptors?
This tribe team is fun.
No doubt. They have a good time out there
Man… Encarnacion was this close to getting himself tossed…
I was hopin for it!
He got the playoff dispensation there.
Miller back out for the 8th
$13m is about right for JR, and what I and many others thought it would be- the fact that the fourth year is a team option is gravy. I think both sides did well- and I’m happy the world gets another Smith.
Man… Robo just misses another one…
Man I really want a Naquin HR here…
Another textbook sac bunt from Coco
The problem with all the bunting is that he isn’t moving a guy from second to third, but first to second, which doesn’t really do much for you if you’re throwing an out away.
CHIZ 3-3!!
Miller strikes out a pair!

Only 8 outs needed for the pen tonight.
The still only 22-year-old Francisco Lindor…
Estrada looks RATTLED!
LINDOR!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes. Yes. Yes.
HOW ABOUT THAT!!
LINDORRRRRRRR!!!!!!
First walk surrendered by Estrada… Indians need to put some pressure on him and get into the Jays bullpen…
I am just not a fan of the shift… reminds me of the hack-a strategy in basketball…
Dang Santana smashed that…
Was hoping it would squirt past Goins…
Good performance. By Kluber.
Kluber strikes out Saunders on his 99th pitch to end the top half of the sixth…
Bad third quarter for Cavs b-team…
All six of the Jays hits are with two strikes…
Lindor’s cleats are AWESOME!

Man, this is a nerve-wracking baseball game…
Junior Cavs running out of gas in the third?
Man… Other than Chiz, Tribe having a tough time figuring out Estrada…
WELL GUYS LIKE I MENTIONED EARLIER IT IS FRI NIGHT ( HAVE A T.V IN THE BED ROOM ) AND AT MY AGE ” OPPORTUNITY ” KNOCKS I JUMP ON IT —NOT LITERALLY —-WELL THEN AGAIN MAYBE SO —BEEN REAL GO TRIBE —GO CAVS — GO BUCKS —AND OH YEAH GO BROWNS !!
Have fun NOMAD!
Lets go ROBO!
Oskar blies IPA IS GOOD.
Jays Devon Travis has to leave game with an injury…
Great sac bunt by Coco!
I WILL DRINK TO THAT COLS !!
Chiz stays hot with his second hit of the game… this time leading off the inning!
Is “chisenhit” still in use? Was when we lived there.
The locals would have to answer that one… not much Tribe action out here in LA ;)
Finally a 1-2-3 inning for Klubes! Just what he needed
Felder>>Delly his first two years.
UNLESSS YOU ARE A BIG BACON EATER
I’m so glad JR got paid. Klutch sports rules.
That Arby’s pork belly sandwich does not look good.
NAPOLI BEEN IN A MILD SLUMP NEEDS TO GO ON ONE OF HIS 3–5 GAME STREAKS
Has any gM ever had a run as good as Griffin the last two years?
What about the guy from the Red Wings
I do not know this sport.
Couple of long flies from Nap and JRam, but not far enough unfortunately…
WHAT A REBOUND BY KSHRIMP
Napoli just missed a party there…
