Here’s to the Tribe making Cliff look like a human buzzsaw in front of a national audience and the continuation of our amazing from-out-of-nowhere 20-game winning streak.

Hello all! I am posting from section 328, row D of Yankee Stadium. Just saw the Indians take BP and am trying to avoid starting any shit with all the Yankee gear-clad people here. I predict good things from everyone because… Well, why not? So here’s hoping Pronk clubs a few, Lee pitches a perfect game, & i make my train home. Go Tribe!

Despite all of my best intentions, I have not, in fact, grown up to be a debaser.

The pronk wish may be tough. He was out of the lineup I just saw flashed on ESPN.

Just glimpsed on sportsline’s preview for tonight’s game:

But Chamberlain, a sensation in the bullpen since being called up in August, has had plenty of problems facing Cleveland. Including the postseason, Chamberlain is 0-1 with a 5.19 ERA and two blown saves against the Indians. He’s 3-1 with a 0.84 ERA against everyone else.

Mmm, it feels very good to be a Tribe fan today.

by macasson on May 7, 2008 7:56 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

I can’t prove it, but I always thought the strike call increased in the 1980s, when the Astros and Twins were in some post-seasons. The networks would have overhead cameras in the domes that would often show the bat crossing the plate.

Umps, of course, were all watching at home and had to be influenced by what they saw.

by SuddenSam on May 7, 2008 8:00 PM EDT to parent up reply reply actions actions   0 recs

big surprise, i can’t find the mention. i’m pretty sure it was olney (though maybe neyer) who had the feeling that they were being called strikes more often THIS SEASON, so he went to talk to scouts (this is why i think it was olney) and they all told the author that they didn’t feel anything had really changed.

but, yes, this observation has been made by multiple baseball observers, so, maybe? whatever. ben fran got screwed.
