Top of the 4th, no score. Ellsbury safe at second, called out by umpire. Odd play at 3rd between Youk and Pedoia...see replay. Lester looking good. Foggy and cold in Cleveland.

Red Sox nation speaks.....heard they changed umps when the Indians were batting.....GO TRIBE!!!!
I'd be a bit excited too if I were an Indian's fan...wow, sweeping the Red Sox musth've caused serious jubilation near Lake Erie. Of course if my team hadn't won a World Series in 62 years, I'd be cheering too.
How about one of you Wahoo guys starting up one of those "Offical" Cleveland Indians threads and we'll alll keep an eye on how well your team does this season? I think when the dust settles, you won't be anywhere near the playoffs...but, that's just my opinion. See ya in August in Fenway...I suspect by then things will be a bit different...could be wrong, but I doubt it.
BTW when I was a kid Ted Williams was my favorite player.

Wow you got defensive real quick. Calm down!
I don't really think any of us "Wahoo" guys really think this Indians team is very good but when you get a series sweep against a team that's consistently a "buyer" it feels pretty good.
Bitc_hing about balls and strikes the first week of the season will get you zero empathy from anyone.

HP umpire making bad calls on balls and strikes.

I reposted what I wrote above...wouldn't exactly call it bit$$ing. I watched the game and there were several bad calls...facts are facts. Instant replay with the strike zone shown, clearly indicated BAD calls...for BOTH sides. I didn't say they were all bad calls for the Red Sox, did I? And believe me, I don't need any empathy from anyone, nor was I seeking any. I suggest YOU not be so sensitve, this is all BS in cyberspace, nothing more, nothing less.
Ralph...
When I was a kid and my dad would take me to Fenway, I had the pleasure and incredible joy of seeing Ted Williams, Mickey Mantle and a bunch of great players actually play in Fenway. I've seen most of the AL players in the 1955 Topps set pass through Fenway...Kaline, Skowron, Ford, Berra, Jensen, etc, etc. Magical, magical times then. We always seemed to get tickets to the deepest part of the field, right next to the 420' sign just to the left of the Red Sox bullpen. Jensen once hit a ball there and I swear I can still see and hear Mickey Mantle scramble on the pea gravel after that ball...he was about 10 feet away from me, that #7 never left my memory. Beautiful times then, not the game it is today. Tix then BTW were just 75 cents for the bleachers, and walk up at that!
GL with your Indians this season. Hopefully one day you will know the thrill of bringing that WS title to Cleveland.
Al
Thanks.

maybe since only the red sox were batting in the top of the sixth is why we all thought it was only bad calls against them......good luck this weekend against the dreaded Yanks
