Cubs - Indians World Series

Northeast, are you watching the game tonight or are you doing Omar's mom?

I am not into moms. But I am watching the Cubs self destruct. They can't score runs. Reminds me of something that the Phillies might do. Maddon needs to have a sit down with his hitters before the next game.
The Indians pitching is incredible and they are using a three man rotation. Wake up Cubs!

Francona has quietly assembled a lethal trio of pitchers and the Cubs have over-estimated just how good they are. The Cubbies are probably in trouble.

Kipnis just buried the Cubs with that 2-run homer. I saw an interesting concept recently. There are a lot of pitches thrown over 100mph in the WS. Cleveland owns the over-whelming majority of them. After awhile, that sort of pitching speed wears an opponent out in just a few short games.

 

[Retroram52]

Now the Indians are hitting all cylinders and Francona and the Indians are putting on a clinic on how to use offense to pressure your opponent into mistakes.

That pick-up of Carlos Santana by Cleveland was a stroke of genius. He had a homer in the second and entered some rarified air with it that has done nothing but ADD to the Cleveland attack.

I didn't think you were the partying type. lol. Maddon can do nothing about the tribe's awesome pitching. With the +245 run differential in the season, I really thought the Cubs would bust loose in these games.

Just think of the excitement next year when the Phillies pull out their hot, unbeatable starting rotation.

No dumpster diving for Cleveland huh Retro ?

Not into Moms! Watching the Cubs do a Phillies routine: forgetting how to hit!

 

[jvett77]

Some moms are good. Good night. And go Eagles!

Correct TheSnowdog. They know what they are doing in the Indians organization this year unlike elsewhere.

 

[Wamu]

The Indians won!

Looks like they'll go all the way, needing only one of the next 3. They just might do it today.

I sure hope the Indians can take care of business tonight.

I think Cleveland will have its second championship. Does this mean that the Browns are next since LeBron started this erasing of Cleveland's horrid sports past?

I guess so!

 

[jvett77]

Almost forgot, Go Eagles!

 

[Retroram52]

The Cubbies come out swinging. Cleveland has an opportunity here but they may be a bit down after the big win last night. 3-1 Cubbies right now. A long way to go though.

 

[Retroram52]

An errant throw to second by the catcher Perez and the Cubbies have another runner in scoring position.

 

[Retroram52]

Whew, the Indians get out of that side with a nice catch of a pop fly for the out. The Indians are down by two. This game may turn here in the next couple of innings.
