Well I guess it really wasnt Acta's fault. Fire Alomar.

Lonnie Chisenhall RBI double gives Indians 1-0 lead in 1st


Billy Butler 2-out RBI single ties game 1-1 in 3rd...Moustakas 2-run double gives them 3-1 lead


Jeff Francoeur 2-out, 3-run HR makes it 6-1 Royals...all 6 runs scored after 2-outs and bases empty

Here we go Cleveland, here we go!

Choo! Choo!


Bottom of 9, tied at 6, bases juiced for Choo.


Free baseball in Cleveland, in Game 158.

2 outs in the bottom of the 11th, still tied at 6....in Game 158 of the season....meaningless in the standings unless trying to avoid last place.


I doubt these players really wanted to be looking at 12 innings in Cleveland on a late Saturday night at the end of September.


But wait, Brantley is now at 3rd, and is the winning run if he scores.....


But Choo again strands the winning run at 3rd to end the inning, and the game.

On to the 12th inning, with September 30th coming within the hour, and October just a day away.

No such luck
On to the 12th.

I'm on my old California body clock this evening. I'll be happy with a 22 inning game to get some ESPN time....

Yet another scoring chance. 1st and 3rd, one out for Kotchman...

Kipnis flashes his cleats and goes from 1st to 3rd on a soft liner.

Runners on the corners with one out.

Kipnis is the winning run at 3rd.

3rd of the last four innings.


And we go to the 13th....

Double play
Whose idea was it to sign that stiff?

Some blind pig?

We should have signed folks who can get the winning run in from 3rd.

We are in the Lucky Double 7.

The 14th inning.


17 pitchers thus far, that's now a main thing as Maines is in.


I'm rooting for 20 pitchers, 20 innings, and a Chris Perez save.

On to the 14th...

Walk and a WP give the Royals a lead.

But we have 2 on, and no outs for Kipnis now...

But we have the tying run at 2nd now, and the winning run at 1st.....in the bottom of the 14th.

No outs.
