Take Me Out to the Ballgame

It's Grady Sizemore's world, and we're just living in it.
The Tribe is the hottest team in baseball right now, riding an 8-game winning streak. If you missed it, Casey Blake had a hell of a catch last night as he climbed over the 3rd base tarp, reached into the stands as his foot slipped down the tarp and caught the ball. Quite spectacular. As I write this, they're up 3-2 in the top of the 8th. Quite a quick game, as its not even 3:00 yet. Their pitching is doing great. They lead the majors with a 3.52 team ERA. Add to that the bullpen, who is second in the majors in ERA and you've got one heck of a pitching staff. Their batting started off slow, but seems to be coming along. The unfortunate thing is that we're in the suddenly-competitive AL Central. Yes, it is only June 19th, but the Tribe is only 2 games out of the wild card race. If they keep playing like this, it could be a fun summer. Of course they did this to us last year too. They got hot in August, came within 1 game of Minnesota, and then collapsed. Hopefully the players learned from that and this year will be able to get over the hump. And we'll make that 9 games in a row as they've now swept the Diamondbacks.
Oh yeah, even though he hit a extra innings walk-off homer the other night, Aaron Boone still sucks.
