Good job, civ!

You like my weather play by play!?

Yep! Didn't like that two run bomb Cookie just gave up, thouggh!

It looks like everyone wants to move these games along. Total 30 pitches to 8 batters for the 2 teams. We're in the top of 1st. OOOPS Two run homer for Russell Martin while I'm typing. I dont' like seeing Carrasco with multiple successive poor starts.

Seeing the Tribe last inning makes me long for good ole days.

Where are my two friends and I who were the total upper deck crowd for the first 5 innings of the first game of the twi-night doubleheader?

at least the Indians are in rush in this one. 27 pitches is all took a lousy lefty to set them down for 2 innings.

Meanwhile Carrasco has put 2 on in the 3rd and is closing in on 60 pitches.

That was probably the worst slide I have ever seen.

Civ, that was from 1958. Notice the chain link fence in OF. Bill Veeck had it installed and would move it in or out depending on who we were playing. Till MLB made him knock it off.

well we finally got a couple on base in the 3rd but it remains 2-0 Jays.

This is an all-day Cleveland vs. Toronto sports day, isn't it?

1958 I was not yet going downtown alone with my pals. My glory days at the empty stadium were mostly late 60s and early 70s

Carrasco has now walked 3, given up 6 hits and will be lucky to keep the score close. When he's good he's unhittable, and I'm disappointed any time he's not at the top of his game.

What an inning. 6 runs in and only one out. Some hits. Zimmer steals 2nd and Gonzalez gets on a 3strike wild pitch. Important that if Zimmer doesn't steal that base, Gonzalez doesn't get the chance on the wild pitch 3rd strike. Frankie 3run bomb. New pitcher.

Davis hits a short fly, the centerfielder makes an unbelievable catch, no wait, he dropped it.

A bit seems to have happened while I went shopping. 7 in 2 on still bottom of the 4th. This doubleheader may last all day and all night.
