Pettite (3-0) vs. Byrd (0-2)
Big series right here. Gives us a chance to get to the .500 mark and beat a rival.
I'll be there tonight. Hopefully the rain holds off.
Let's go Tribe!
I am unfamiliar with this feeling of optimism

Yeah, that's what I was thinking of when I responded. You should keep your broom to yourself until at least the last game of the series.

I'd say Giambi owns Byrd... 
Joe Thomas made Justin Timberlake change his name. He didn't want wusses to have the same initials...

Best game of the year so far...
Byrd hung in their vs. a very tough lineup...
We were patient at the plate, made the yanks pay for walks....
We hit well in the clutch.... We got an insurance run to get the lead back to 2...
And, the bullpen was SOLID
Just a great game to watch as a fan....
I heart winning

Watched this last night with some of my buddies. Great game even though I'm growing impatient with Pronk. If he goes on a tear, watch out.

Great job by the pen today again, and we did not have to use either of the raffys. It looks like Masa is starting to really settle in. Nice to see him pick up his first win as an Indian.
Gotta love Vic, guy is no doubt the glue to this team, both on the field and in the clubhouse. Best thing about him is that he leads by example...
I heart winning

LMAO, I am excited and think that slow start might be a good thing for us. Some guy have stepped up(LEE!!) and when the guys like CC do what we know they can do we will be in good shape.

I was over at my friends and watched it on his 60 inch HD. Wow. What a difference. But I got other things I need to pay for first before I go HD. To those who can afford it, it's worth it.

Lee, not sure if you realize this is a 4 game series, so we have to win today and tomorrow for the sweep...
Hope you are right, though

CC pitching well today (6.2IP 4H 1ER 8K)....too bad C.M.Wong (can't use his real name) is going better (6IP 4H 0ER 7K). Headline will read: Wong goes deep; Yanks All Over Cleveland

Well.....those bats have to accomplish a 9th inning comeback against Mariano Rivera.
And VMart already with the leadoff out. Darn.

Anyone know where Tom Hamilton went today? He was announcing the game, but I left the radio to check online for the Browns' picks. When I returned, Mike Hegan was doing the 9th inning, which never happens - Hamilton always does the 9th. Then, somebody named Jim Rosenhaus did the post-game, which is usually Tom's gig. Hope he's okay ...

He should be used to not getting run support. It's been that way for a while now.

Nice piece of managing there by Wedge. Let Laffey pitch his way out of a decision and in to a potential loss.  When the young guy gets you in to the 6th and he gets in trouble, GET HIM OUT BEFORE HE GIVES UP 3 RUNS.  And with one out, and the bases loaded we don't walk a guy to set up the double play?

I'm not sure we could hit our way out of wet paper bag right now. Horrible at bats.
