Trump has run a national ad for every fox game (games on fox & FS1). And I just change the channel any time it comes on now

That seems like a serious waste of money......

Yeah I'm a Tribe fan. Watched Sabathia pitch as a rookie etc. I might be the only poster here who is Tribe first and foremost.

So I'm both enjoying this and superstitious as hell.

Tweet from Darren Rovell, ESPN Senior Writer:
"Standing room only tickets for Game 5 in Wrigley that were selling for $2,400 yesterday are now on StubHub for as low as $750"
Guess what was the least attended World Series game of all-time?

Using otero here may mean Allen is not only available for 6 outs tomorrow, but effective for it.

Should be able to get 3 innings from Miller and Allen tomorrow, just Allen carry the bulk.

My wife's from Cleveland and her Mom is the single biggest sports fan I've ever met.(she literally watches every Indians, Cavs, and Browns game) I rooted hard for the Sox in the ALDS of course but once they were dispatched by Cleveland, I had to, for family reasons, jump on the Tribe bandwagon. Despite the Sox loss and Papi's retirement, it's been a fun ride.

Pulling for them and for you. I don't think this is over but the Cubs coming back from 3-1 is a tall order.

Shots of Maddon staring out at the field look very LaRussa-esque, circa 2004. As BillSimmons said after the Series, he looked like a guy who came out of the store to discover that his car had been stolen.

I'm thinking Shaw for 3 outs, Miller for 4 outs, Allen for 6 outs tomorrow. Otero for 2 if you need him

Just need 4 innings from Bauer

Aside from Linder getting picked off and chisenhall and guyer having a few hiccups my guys have played pretty damn good baseball.

And the pitching. Holy Christ the pitching. Love it.

Even disinterested fans with no rooting interest should be enjoying this, it's good baseball.

And running into an out at 3rd.
And Kipnis forgetting how to field in Game 2.
And missing the cutoff man leading to a run.

But your pitching has covered up any shortcomings.

Your team is very likeable and the other isn't. In all honesty if the same baseball was played by another highway series, say something like San Diego v Oakland, I wouldn't be watching/enjoying.

Happy for you guys. I'm rooting for the Tribe, partly because of Tito and partly because I've known a few diehard Indians fans over the years. Hope they get it done.

It's remarkable that Tito is basically doing this with 20-21 guys the way he's not using the back of the bullpen
