Thanks Fate

No problem!

Great game, with Jose gettin going, I truly believe we can win the world series this year!

I can watch game 1 of the ALCS, then off to Thailand. What a time to go huh? Should be fine for World Series if the Guards make it there.

What a series. What a win. Just build Jose his statue now.

Vogt has this team believing in themselves.

ALCS time!!!!

So happy for you! The crowd was amazing, gave me chills at times. There is nothing like being there to enjoy it in person!

And yes. Commission the statue now. You know you're building it, just pull the curtain the day he retires. He deserves nothing less.

My window access to World Series tickets opens up on Tuesday. Time to get ticket shopping!

You win what it takes. Extra wins don't garner bonus points. Now it is about 4 wins. Win 4, then win 4 more. Inning by inning, game by game.

game 1 tonight - a split in Tampa would be excellent

Especially, with Foster Griffin going tonight and then having to decide if they're going back to Messick on Tuesday or a bullpen game to give Messick additional days rest after pitching on short rest as a rookie in the ALDS.

facing Rasmussen in TB is a really tall task too. Game 1 is a challenge

Guards take game 1, 7-3. Tampa Bay's 1st post-season loss.

Go Guardians!

Great team approach at the plate tonight by the Guardians.

Awesome win to go up 1-0!

Keep the bats hot.

Chase is going to be a real superstar. Jose has to love having him hitting behind him.

Maybe travel is good luck. I watched the end of this game in Tokyo. I was here for game 5 too but didn't get to see any of that game.

Yeah hopefully it is. Leaving bright and early. Will get game 2 results in Tokyo as well, lol. Then hopefully world series.

Ramirez was toying with that pitcher. That whole trip around the bases was hilarious. Numerous throws from the catcher and pitcher, then he just keeps dancing every time the pitcher looks back. So much fun to watch a player that just goes out every day and has sooo much fun.

I understand the late starts. I went to be after the 2nd inning. Woke up at 2:30, checked my phone then got up to watch the highlights on youtube, and a few other things. Back in bed around 4.

As for the wins part, I want them all. I want their children. OK, maybe not that.

I admit to getting a little “welp, they’re starting up the buzzsaw early” in the 1st inning. I read that Paul Hoynes thing about how the guardians might just not be built for October in their current configuration after the 2nd loss against Chicago. I thought maybe it was that, our bats just can’t keep up with the top teams dependably.

Gotta say, this isn’t the most boisterous group, they’re not the cast of characters of guardians/ Indians past, they’re very workman like. Still, when they’re on, they’re as efficient and cut throat as anyone in the league. They don’t seem to get their feathers ruffled much. They just have to find a way to keep hitting and getting on base. Which seems to always start with Ramirez.

Was toggling back and forth between MNF and boy, what a game that was. That was an entertaining night of sports couching if there ever was one. I love seeing the Rams lose these days.

BOOM! timely hitting and gutty win. Big to get them at home vs Rasmussen

Right? Fun night to be a sports fan!
