fathom Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Sizemore with a leadoff triple to start the bottom of the 1st. That's one more triple than Pods has had all season. Crisp than doubles on the next pitch, and Indians lead 1-0. WE'RE f***ED! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWSGuy406 Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 5.5 Indians about to be up 2-0, and Joe Mauer isn't playing. The Twinkies won't score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fathom Posted September 12, 2005 Author Share Posted September 12, 2005 2-0 Indians are winning. There's absolutely no comparison between the White Sox and Indians right now. Get this....the Indians actually look like they're having fun on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CWSGuy406 Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Cleveland has 67 less stolen bases then we have. How the hell are they scoring runs without that balance that the Sox have? Hawk tells me we have a lot of balance. Isn't balance good? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nitetrain8601 Posted September 12, 2005 Share Posted September 12, 2005 Told most of you guys that we shouldn't be making stupidass elimination threads, especially prematurely. Now it's going to look so f***ing stupid. Respect all teams until they're mathematically out of it. Something lots of Sox fans on here didn't do.

How the hell are they scoring runs without that balance that the Sox have? Hawk tells me we have a lot of balance. Isn't balance good? Because they have an extremely productive leadoff hitter, hit a ton of doubles and triples, and have depth up and down their lineup. It must be nice to have a leadoff hitter that can actually produce runs, a manager that doesn't play for one run in the first inning of a game, and a team that has the ability to comeback from a deficit.

Yet, I've been assured there is nothing to be worried about Apparently, since we've "owned" the Central Division--and by extension the Indians--we're going to be fine. I sense the collar becoming a little tight around this club. If this lead falls below 5, they might as well prepare for a national onslaught of criticism and laughter. Hopefully, I'll never have to post this picture again: But if we blow our lead, I want this posted in the banner at the top of the page.

fathom Posted September 12, 2005 Author Share Posted September 12, 2005 I'll flat out say it: The Indians are a better club than the White Sox. The pitching is pretty even overall, but their hitting is much better than the Sox. I can't believe the Sox were ever like 15 games better than them this season. Bash me if you want, but if I was a neutral baseball fan, I'd definitely think the Indians were better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're in deep trouble unless this club finds its balls and reverts to its winning ways of September. Look at Cleveland--taking extra bases, having fun, hitting at all fields and not missing meatballs. Sounds like a certain team we knew from a few months ago.

fathom Posted September 12, 2005 Author Share Posted September 12, 2005 But if the Sox go .500 the rest of the year, the Indians would have to be really good....right? It's amazing that many of the same people who were saying things like that a month ago are now awfully quiet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
