Indians playing un-clutch so far tonight.
1st inning: Bases loaded, one out, Santana grounds into double play.
2nd inning: Bases loaded, no out, Indians score just one run (strike out, single, base running mistake, ground out).
3rd inning: Three straight pop ups (Lindor, Napoli, Santana) from the league leaders in popping out.
4th inning: Guyer doubles with one out, goes to third on throwing error. Crisp (surprise, surprise) pops out. Perez grounds out. Another wasted opportunity.
5th inning: Indians go 1-2-3 with two more pop outs (Kipnis, Lindor). It's really uncanny how much this team pops out.
White Sox lead 3-1 going to the top of the sixth. Todd Frazier hits a solo bomb to go up 4-1.
6th inning: Napoli and Santana pop out. Ramirez hits two-out double. Guyer lines out to short. Tribe now 1 for 7 with runners in scoring position.
7th inning: Indians get a hit but don't score. They do manage to add another pop out (Kipnis), their 9th of the game.
Top of the 8th, Indians are conceding defeat. Austin Adams enters the game to pitch.
Adams goes 1/3 of an inning, gives up 4 runs on 3 hits. Now 8-1 Sox. Game over.
8th inning: Indians go quietly but manage not to pop out.
9th inning: Some good news tonight: Brandon Guyer gets hit by a pitch, his major league leading 31st HBP of the season. Almonte follows with a double. Runners on 2nd & 3rd with one out, Naquin strikes out, Adam Moore (who?) strikes out.
Final: White Sox 8, Indians 1
White Sox Alex Avila struck out five times (platinum sombrero) tonight. The rest of the team was 15/37 (.405) for the game.

You should know they play like crap every time there are more than 20,000 people in attendance, and then they wonder why their attendance is so poor.
I am just hoping that they do not pull the big choke job and lose their remaining games. However, it probably does not matter because the way this team is hitting right now playing against either Boston or Texas is not going to be a pretty sight. Lindor is in a big funk, along with the Party man and most of the rest of the guys who are attending those parties.

The great Carlos Rodon (7-10, 4.29 ERA) shut out the Indians through eight innings on just two hits. He struck out a career-high 11 batters. Indians went 1-2-3 in the ninth against White Sox closer David Robertson.
The offense has been simply awful the past two games: 10 for 61 (.164) overall, 1 for 12 (.083) with runners in scoring position, one run scored.
The defense was as bad as the offense with three errors.
The only bright spot was Josh Tomlin. He had another nice start, going 6-2/3 innings and giving up 2 runs (1 earned) on 5 hits and 1 walk.
McAllister gave up a run in the 9th to seal the defeat.

Well, this shitty team only has to win one game out of the next seven. Can they do it or will this be the biggest choke job in Cleveland history
It certainly would have been nice to clinch the Division at home but oh no they cannot do that against two pretty piss poor pitchers.

I know, especially if Kluber loses the first game tonight. I just do not have any faith in the rest of the "rotation" and you never know what might happen in Kansas City.
It probably will be a little bit interesting when Bauer takes the mound against D–troit later this week..

Bauer has shit the bed, with a 6.75 ERA in September. While Tomlin has managed to regain some sort of non shitty form with a 1.40 ERA in September. Kelvinger has been "ok" not great but somewhat serviceable since settling in. We can only hope that Cody Anderson makes no more starts.

Well, neither has been as good or bad as those numbers... I'm not sure what that says, but, yeah... I dunno, I suppose its a good thing since we know Bauer is pretty much the 2... but sadly I just don't see him going deep enough consistently to make me feel ok with having to quick hook Tomlin.

5 "good" innings (not giving up more then 3, preferably under) from any starter not named Kluber is a win at this point, anything more is a great bonus. The Bullpen is going to get ridden hard, so it's important for Kluber to go 7+ in his starts from here on out to sort of "save" some innings.

Really big strike zone for the Tigers pitcher in the first, hopefully the same is given to Kluber.
