For those of you keeping score at home, the Padres have a payroll THREE times the size of the Guardians.
The G's just took both games from them.
This is going to be a fun last six weeks

Astros help out the Guardians with a 5-3 win over the Twins with the 21st consecutive quality start for Frambler Valdez, a new Astros record. Astros Montero gave up 2 runs in the 9th before getting bailed out with a liner right at Altuve who doubled up the runner who had gotten off 2nd base. No one out and two runs in at the time. Forced a grounder to 3rd for the final out. Whenever Montero comes in a game I cringe. He's just as likely to blow it as make the save.

Staring at years of Browns fans debating the morality of their starting quarterback, the face of their franchise, its nice to know that Cleveland has a baseball team that quietly is one of the better run sports franchises there is, with a roster of very likable players.
Hopefully the season goes a long time for the Guardians. It's been a really fun season so far. ....might be an important game, hmmm.
Edit: After imploring people to get out and support the G's on a FB Guardians page, I thought I better take my own advice, and just got tickets to the Guardians vs Royals Sunday afternoon game on October 2. I'll be missing the Browns/Falcons game, but somehow this year, I think I can handle it.
.....edit add. A suggestion take a small pocket AM/FM radio to the game to catch up on BROWNS details.
I remember once we had about 25 guys going to a NYY at INDIANS game, Guidry's super year won his ONLY Cy Young that year......I brought a nice AM/FM radio together with a a 5" TV in it. Sunday September 24, 1978, 4 days before my birthday.
BROWNS at Steelers on, I ended up with a small crowd around me watching baseball and my TV especially when the game went into OT in Pittsburgh.
Oh Cleveland lost both, Guidry W 4-0, 9 inning shut out, BROWNS lost 9-15 in OT and a really bad call. I (we) saw both. Attendance in CLE 15, 855, I have the ticket stub and program in a box (somewhere) in our cellar or attic.
Guidry went 25-3 that year, he's 72 years old......today August 28..... his last game 1 day before my 38th birthday, I'll be 72 exactly one month from today....creepy, huh.
.
I'm so glad I saw both even in losses.

The sad thing is, I didn't even look at the Browns schedule before buying the Sunday tickets to the Guardians mjp... I knew the Browns would be playing, but truthfully, I didn't care. I also knew that I would miss the Browns game the following Sunday because I'll be driving to Columbus for my aunt's 80th BDay party. That's how little I am invested in this coming Browns season.
Luckily, we have a good Guardians team to follow.

Game 126- Sun Aug 28 - CLE (67-58) at SEA (69-58) first pitch 4:10 pm. Civale vs Ray.
■~~~~~>
>~~~~~> Game 4. Lets get it going. Playoff baseball. !
.... SEA 3-0. top 7. SEA scores a 3R HR bottom 5. Mid 7, need runs !
....x.... SEA 4-0. final. SEA 4 4 0 LOB 3 ◆ CLE 0 5 1 LOB 4. Not very outstanding numbers.
So some close playoff style games, the Guardians are ~OFF MONDAY ~ see you Tuesday in CLE !
