I have to say, I almost like having the stadium to myself. I don’t have to wait in line to go to the bathroom, there’s no traffic when I leave. Plus the fans that actually show up are pretty hard core!

I’m also cracking up at the poster board fans…that’s a pretty brilliant idea!

When you have the bases loaded with less than 2 outs, and you can’t even hit a fly ball, it makes me want to weep.

Even though it’s only April, and it’s a 3-way tie for first, I will definitely take it! Tribe is 8-2 in their last 10 games.

1) Rock Bottom Remainders are also the name of a band that is headed up by humor writer Dave Barry. I doubt even he could find humor in the way we can strand runners on base.

2) LOVE your pet name for our first baseman! Will probably steal it.

3) Dear Chris Perez: I’m getting older every day (some days quicker because of your pitching). Could we please get through the season without me having to suffer a heart attack? Thank you.

4) We won. In the end that’s all that counts, right?

Not much of a turn out. My dad and I made and brought “fill in fans” made out of poster board. Very popular out in right field

#1 rule of bunt club, you do not talk about bunt club. Come on Kipnis, that’s a man card violation, swing the bat.

Seems like April and May were a lot “warmer” in the 90′s when we had a playoff team on the field.

I have trouble throwing from second to first, but I think I can challenge Cunningham. I’m pretty sure I throw further than Damon.

And that first pitch crap makes me want to fling a chair onto the field.

If everyone ran onto the field and bolted to the dugout at the same time, I do not think security could stop you guys, I vote go for it!

As I am working on finishing a paper, I now find myself making pathetic tribe comparisons. Here are a couple for your reading pleasure (In case Aaron Cunningham’s at bats are fun enough to watch live):

1.) Who could throw a baseball farther: Aaron Cunningham right-handed, or Carlos Santana left-handed? (Santana? Anyone? Seriously I bet he can out-throw Cunningham with his feet.)

or…

2.) How many jams will Derek Lowe work out of this year (my vote 50+)

or my personal favorite…

3.) How many more times will tribe hitters swing at the first pitch tonight?

I still think we should all be invited into the dugout…I’m pretty sure we’d fit.

Hey ladies, I hope the game is going well! Stay warm up there!

Funny thing is, when the camera pans around the field, I thought to myself “My graduating class at Thiel (less than 200) is larger than tonight’s crowd.” Seems as if you have to pay people to attend April home games anymore!
