So right now it would be Cleveland at Tampa where 7,500 devoted fans cheer on their well-loved Rays. And thousands of winter home Northern Ohioans root for the Tribe.

1 up on the Red Sox and the Rangers and 2 1/2 ahead of the As. Only we get the benefit of lots of games against KC and Detroit. Although BOS gets similar large doses of O's and Blue Jays

[Closer to the Twins than we've been for awhile, too, 7 1/2, but we'll need them to skid some point to make up that difference.

Hope Kip stays hot. Might be a sucker out there that will take him in a trade.

We don't have a replacement quite ready although Yu Chang is off the IL and hitting well in his first back with the Clippers. He's been playing a little here and a little there in the Columbus infield.

Seagull, good to see you here. Been wondering if you fell and couldn't get up.

Back in rainy Rhode Island for the summer.

Listening to Boston/New England sports talk shows. All bad-mouthing Kyrie.

Don’t worry, it’s rainy everywhere. We’ve been getting pounded here in Montana, and it’s normally dry as hell. Saving me money on my water bill at least. (Sprinklers have barely broke a sweat)

Hey hillbilly. See that

Naquin hitting another homer? Yeah I saw that!

That one hurt...

A lot!

I kept thinking that Tito should have brought in Goody to start the 9th with Brad in the wings, based on the results that would have been OK by me!

Someone bit the Hand that feeds them.

Nice to see Bauer turn in another good one. And what is this, 3rd straight game with a homer for Naquin? Now that he’s playing everyday he can find his stroke. Leave him in there. He’ll have a bad stretch like everyone else but overall he can be a solid every day guy.

This ump must have an early flight out today. He's calling about anything between the batters box a strike.

Bauer hit a couple batters with a pitch today. If they had got out of the way it may have been called a strike.

Hmm, there seems to be a hint here that the Indians played an afternoon game today.
