It's little things like this that drive me crazy about Snit. We just got swept, and we're facing a real tough pitcher, and we have the DH, but neither Johan nor Charlie are in the lineup, but Matt Joyce is.

E4 followed by Acuna missing a fly ball. I'll give Acuna a little slack since he had to come so far for it, but still looked like a little show boating with that slide/pose.

Shitty luck that inning. Ball off Ozzie's glove and a popup into no man's land forced a tied game and a lot of pitches.

That wasn't an error, and Acuna had to come so far. A ball like that is usually the shortstop's, but they were playing the shift, so Dansby had no shot. Wind blowing in too, which probably pushed it just out of Acuna's reach.

You can't walk .077 hitters, I'm sorry.

Missing arm side to left handers, you know what you're doing, now make the adjustment.

The one Albies missed was an error. i don't care how they scored it. Acuna's not so much, but Albies ... yes.

Short hop on a ball that was probably hit 110+ MPH. There ain't an official scorer in the league gonna rule that an error unless it's late in the game and the home team has a no hitter on the line.

Fuck you Kluber. If you can't bust Acuna inside without hitting him don't do it. Hope he catches a line off the head.

I think that's the first time I've ever seen us get the out at home on a squeeze play.

We got bailed out by a tardo batting cleanup for the Indians, but I'll take it.

Julio ain't on today, that's for sure, but he's also getting squeezed on a lot of pitches.

That home run pitch should have never had to be thrown.

Can't have that many baserunners and not have it bite you.

I just don't know how a pitcher can be dominant in his last start and have zero command his next. We needed a strong performance, and he didn't deliver. He grinded more than certain other pitchers who I won't name, but he played with fire too much.

Are we ever gonna win another game?

But you'd also think our so called super star, Gold Glove first baseman can make a diving stop for his pitcher every now and then. Went right under his glove. It would have been a good play, but not spectacular, so it's not like I'm asking for a whole lot.

Fuck off Parsons. You've been good this year, but when you get ahead 0-2, there's never an excuse to walk em. Throw God damn strikes.

And now it's 5-2 and sure enough ball game.

Just fucking start head hunting and maybe soften em up for game 2. In desperate need for a win and yall come out playing like this.

Fuck off.

Start selling off pieces and start the rebuild again.

6-2

All this with 2 outs.

Please hang one for a 3 run homer.

Please.

Don't even act like you're trying.

If you can't get a grip in the cold, fucking say something.

You can't convince me these players are putting forth their best effort, and that's on the God damn manager too.
