The Cleveland Guardians - the BEST STORY IN BASEBALL - just CLINCHED A PLAYOFF SPOT with a walk-off

[@TheKLeifheit13]

When Jose says they needed Hedgie back, I listen

[@pmccartneychargedup]

Oh wait I thought the blimp Bull was right about everything

[@Bilski86]

Been watching Cleveland baseball since 1990. I have never been more proud of these guys

[@dereksimmons2492]

So many good memories from the 90’s at Jacobs Field.⚾️😺

Every team celebrates when they make the post season. Then they celebrate again when they win the division. It’s been going on for years. And you chose to open this segment with complaining about it?

[@isaacw646]

Right. Unbelievable complaining. Our team makes the post seaoson and that's the first thing that comes to their minds?

[@chubbawubbahubb24]

Because other people talked about it first. This panel has no creativity they just repurpose other people's segments

[@pmccartneychargedup]

Just old men yelling get off my lawn, no other way to describe it

[@bbarta2588]

I don't know what's better, clinching a playoff spot, or possibly EMILIATING the Twin's.....

[@Khobbyhobs]

Tell me you don’t watch the guardians by not telling me you don’t watch the guardians: “Eli Morgan is the only guy in the bullpen who scares me” - Jay Crawford

[@George50809]

Eli came through in the tenth. Of course, he should not have loaded the bases, but he did.

[@RageOhio]

Prior to Eli coming back he struggled quite a bit. He was getting rocked almost every other game in big time situations. Luckily hes back pitching solid, and seems reliable like he was in 2022. I can see Jay's point but theres no reason to even mention it because Eli has shown nothing but command and strength since his return.

[@ernieestrella6766]

Crawford is an idiot. Barlow and Sandlin are the sketchy guys coming in, especially given those situations, one run or less situations. Ulcer inducing. Morgan is rarely put in the position to make high pressure pitches. He is usually put in when the lead is big, or we are chasing runs. That said, he has usually been solid in those situations, especially when healthy.

[@mitchellkeeline9064]

7 walk off wins this year and at least 3 came against Minnesota, The Will Brennan home run off Duran, Rochio, and now Gimenez that has to be demoralizing having the twins give up 3 wins at least

[@matthewgabbard6415]

Congratulations guys

[@garyhartel2180]

Eli is fine, Sandlin scares the heck out of me.

[@rccollins1456]

don't want to see Sandlin in a meaningful situation

[@George50809]

He scares me too.

[@designsinorbit]

Haven't missed one game this year. They are so fun to watch. Hosie has got to be getting close to being 🔥

[@youngmuggzy85]

I haven’t watched this much baseball since I was in grade school in the 90s these guys are sooo much fun to watch 😊

[@designsinorbit]

​@@youngmuggzy85 I wish I had watched this much in the 90's because I would have been such a better baseball player.

[@George50809]

The magic number to clinch a bye is now one.

[@puppybrap4524]

I’m not watching this live but how do these guys not correlate Kwan’s spiral to his back not being right? These guys are slipping from what I remember just a few weeks ago.

[@nathanpage4887]

The Yankees did it when they clinched

[@George50809]

The Guardians were 51-26, and since have gone 38-39.

[@Xontar02]

And they are 14-7 in last 21. Teams have spurts in 162 game schedule.

[@George50809]

@@Xontar02 Yes, they have. A nice recovery.

[@Justin-pq3rq]

They do have a track record. 😂. Naylor, Jose, Kwan, etc…. We’re all on the 22 team that took the Yankees to 5 games in the ALDS. And should have won if Terry would have started Shane.

[@AceSolomon94]

UCSS with the usual cynical sports take, MINUS G Bush cuz he a real one. 💯

[@youngmuggzy85]

That’s cuz Jay can spin a brick of Gold into a wet turd with his hot takes. Every now and then I can tolerate bull, but Jay and Jason make you feel like they barely like cleveland sports teams

[@chubbawubbahubb24]

With the way the schedule is in this divisional round you only need 3 starters

[@bonznthuzs]

G on the comment about Soto and Judd well I pitch to them anytime and every time there's no one on base otherwise I'm walking both of them

[@Elephant2024-wi2li]

If you win your division, you should be rewarded with a first round bye. It is ridiculous that one of the division winners has to play a 2 out of 3 series in the wild card round.

[@George50809]

I see your point, but in the NFL, only the team with the best record gets a first round bye. The other three division winners play Wild Card weekend games.

[@thewizardofoz511]

This title is cap tbh.. it's actually the Detroit Tigers.. like literally, how can you ignore what they've done??.. if you think about their story and then I'm selling at the deadline and them actually getting better after that, having the best record since August 10th and all of the MLB.. I think they're like 20-9 since then .. and just being as young as they are and the third youngest team in the league is just absolutely insane.. NO ONE saw the Tigers coming.. and they're young and dangerous.. they're basically like a bunch of college dudes just playing the game they love and don't even realize they're supposed to be this good or something.. HELL, all Detroit sports teams seem to have that same Detroit Swagger in up and comingness when you think about it.. don't sleep on the Tigers

[@George50809]

The White Sox are 36-120.

[@titansrule72]

but can they manufacture runs in the playoffs? playing the twins crap bullpen is not what they will see. they have to get base runners on, get them over and get them in. their margin for error is the smallest of any al team because they go so cold on offense.

[@George50809]

You may be right. It will be interesting to see how they play. It would be nice to get two out of three in St. Louis this weekend.

[@sonic-qh7ed]

scoring runs has and prob will be our downfall in playoffs we just dont generate enough offence and have to depend on our pitching mostly our bullpen to win games

[@titansrule72]

@@sonic-qh7ed yep. if they hadn't abandoned their 1st half approach they would have ran away with the al wins total up over 100. kwan really effed himself when he started hitting lasers out of the park and was never the same. jose wasnt the same after participating in the hr derby either. those guys were the catalyst for the offense the whole season until their bats slowed down. not sure you can get that rhythm back after its gone.

[@sonic-qh7ed]

@@titansrule72 how many wins that we have had to comeback to win. that always wont happen they just are fortunate they had a lead in the division

[@titansrule72]

@@sonic-qh7ed yes. they had a nice 10 game lead that went to 0 before that last game vs kc. not to mention how many losses to trash teams this year? 5 to white sox.. multiple to colorado, miami, toronto, tampa just to name a few.

[@JahK216]

That’s why I hate Cleveland sports reporters yall hate so much smh

[@timmurphy479]

It breaks my heart to say this but I haven't gave a damn about the guard since they were the Indians grew up in Cleveland was an Indians fan through the '60s '70s and '80s when they change their name they lost me as a fan

[@CLE-uv2ij]

You’re greatly missed…..

[@justaperson-mx7ii]

So you were a 'fan' for three decades just because of the teams name? They also no longer play at Municiple Stadium, or at a ballpark with the Jacobs brothers name on it, honestly who cares? That stuff is superficial. They still play in and represent the city of Cleveland. Go Guardians!!

All time stupid 😂
