Guardians overcome one of the worst challenge calls (that resulted in Francona getting ejected) to beat the White Sox.

Another sell out, fifth one of the season, tomorrow night's game in close to being sold out too.

I guess the team found replacements for all the people who allegedly would never go back to Progressive Field after the name change.

~ And the box score in what will become a lot of "must win" games in the approximately 30% of the games left in this season. They are by NO means. OUT of the AL CENTRAL race only -2 GB -6 GBWC but they have a challenging road ahead and can not give away many games left. It's now AUGUST / SEPTEMBER baseball !

And of course one eye is on the IR List and just like in 2022 .... the other eye is on the fine crop of rookies and younger players. ● Oh, and now tonight's promised box score :

★ CLE 4 9 1 WP Allen (5-4) 3.65 ERA SV Clase 29 2.90 ERA --◇-- WSX 2 7 0 LP Clevinger (4-5) 3.72 ERA.

We have to see which of our GUARDIANS players box scores continue to go up ...... and which ones just hang around ...... you guessed it .500.

~ See you Saturday 7:10 pm on this Football / Baseball Weekend in Cleveland,. Enjoy your Friday evening. !

SUN 8/6 - GAME 112 - Game 3/3 WSX in CLE at 2:10 pm. - Scholtel vs TBA on the Peacock Network

︎~~~~~~~~~~︎

WSX 2 CLE 0, bottom 5, Need runs, hits, something ..... soon. And just like that 2R HR 2-2 !

CLE scores 3 in the 5th to go up 3-2 -but- the WSX got 3 in the 9th to win it WSX 5-3. The box :

WSX 5 12 2 WP Peralta (1-0) 4.15 ERA SV Lambert 1 4.50 ERA --◇-- CLE 3 7 2 LP Clase (1-6)

Thanks, man. I figured if I sat here they'd let me DH middle of the rotation. Because this is the worst CLE team I've seen on offense in my life.

With all the injuries, this team is going to be limping to the finish line in '23.

Get healthy and try again in '24.
