Cleveland Circus Act

September 19, 2013

Oh, Cleveland. You are fighting for a wild card spot. Even though you have been working your hardest to secure one of the two spots, you continue to provide fan entertainment.

First there was Asdrubal Cabrera and Nick Swisher Corey Kluber on Tuesday night. Cabrera shows off his cannon for an arm as he launches a ball from short left field position all the way to the pitcher’s mound. Additionally, Swisher Kluber saves his twins by doing the jumping splits.

To not be out done, the rest of the infield jumped in on Wednesday night with this clown act.

All I have to say is thank you Indians and I hope you can continue to provide more material as you finish your schedule with your powerhouses including the Astros, White Sox and Twins.

That was Swisher jumping over the cutoff throw. Kluber was backing up the plate. Don’t forget the routine pop up that hit Raburn in the glove that helped lead to the three insurance runs in the 8th.
