Additional notes:

Adalberto Mejia left last night’s game early due to a wrist injury, but per La Velle E. Neal III the team does not believe it’s serious. The hope is he’ll make his next scheduled start. In a recent article, Mike Berardino reported that Matt Magill’s role would be changing. Instead of length, Paul Molitor will look to Magill for more high-leverage opportunities. Clevinger has had some trouble against the Twins, posting a 4.23 ERA and 1.59 WHIP in 27 2/3 innings pitched. His career marks are 3.64 ERA and 1.28 WHIP. Eddie Rosario, who is coming off a four-hit night, has a .313/.358/.549 slash line against right-handed pitchers this year.

It's Cleveland that's in Dire Straits. We win the next three and we are only something like 7 games behind...... Then it's jut a matter of time before the enormous pressure gets to Clevleand and they wilt...... Then we walk into NY and...... and..... Sorry, an image of both the Hindenburg and Les Nessmans Turkey Promotion flashed in front of my eyes! I can't go on............

I'm glad FSN decided to broadcast the Little League World Series Regional action from Cleveland for us

 

I heard Cave's 1st inning blunders and both of those are unacceptable attempts at the Major League Level

 

Then...I watch as Lindor waves to Gomes to signal he'd like a pick...does everything short of yelling "Yan throw it to me on the next pitch" and Garver STILL gets picked

 

With 47 coaches/trainers/injured players/players playing on the bench, i wonder if anyone is watching what's going on...at the VFW level we had two coaches and 14 year old guys on the bench that would have saw that and let Garvsauce know...and he may have been safe with a fundamental dive to the outfield side of the base instead of going in standing

 

Now...LoFo can't catch a throw to 2nd...ugh...might be time to commit to watching Downtown Alley on Netflix

Don't let me drink too much, I need some encouragement, guys.

Just watch out for the hot dog mascot...last trip to Progressive and the hot dog snuck up on me from behind and grabbed my a$$...can't even watch the mascot races anymore
