Beating the Yankees is so nice
*We did it twice*
Positives from today’s Cleveland baseball:
#Extend Steven Kwan (and fuck the Yankees).
SLAP HITTING SHIT GOBLINS STRIKE AGAINST THE YANKEES AGAIN!!! The bats get 3 runs off of 6 hits, 2 walks, 4 stolen bases, an error, and a passed ball. Kwan👑 gets two singles, Manzo🥔 hits a double, and beyond that, it is pure chaos. A Kwan-NoJo⛰️ double steal turns into Kwan going from second to home thanks to the passed ball. *Seriously, that 6th inning was wild…*
A lotta pitches for the evening… but he made it work. Tanner Bibee♠️ ended his night with a line of 6IP, 5H, 2R, 3BB, and 5K on 106 pitches. The only runs allowed were a leadoff solo home run and a late sac fly, and massive kudos to IssaBibe for pulling a quality start out of tonight.
A tired bullpen? Doesn’t matter. Unleash the horsemen. Herrin🐟(1IP), Gaddis☠️(1IP), and K’d Smith🐴(1IP) as closer(again) combine for 3IP, 1H, 0R, 1BB, and 4K. holy efficiency closer Cade hot damn, 4 pitches. Future note- Zak Kent will be 🪖 because he went to Virginia Military Institute for college.
This was supposed to be a tugboat🚢 blurb and then he immediately got blown up and I’m sad. Jose Devers(High A) hit a leadoff single, stole second, stole third, and still didn’t score… we need to teach the kids the power of a sac fly. CJ Kayfus(AA) now has a 14 game hit streak thanks to a first inning single, and Alfonsin Rosario(High A) moves his streak to 11 games thanks to a bloop single.
Who needs torpedo bats? First time the Guardians have won a series against the Yankees since 2019! What a showing by the boys! And how about Cade Smith – 4 pitch save! What a performance!
WELCOME BACK TO FIRST PLACE

FOUR-PITCH SAVE. CADE IS FRESH FOR THE SWEEP.
Skankees fan base in shambles rn
Cade Smith four pitch save makes me weak at the knees.
#CADE SMITH IS THE LIGHT, THE TRUTH AND THE WAY!
“happy girl!” – Steven Robert Kwan
SERIES WON
FUCK THE YANKEES
IF ANGEL MARTINEZ WAS A PITCHER HE WOULD BE ON-HILL MARTINEZ
FUCK THE YANKEES
CLEVELAND LAGUARDIANS
FUCK THE YANKEES
I get all warm and fuzzy inside going to the Yankees post game thread after a game like this
That’s a great win right there. Eat me, New York
Seriously. Extend Kwan. What the hell is wrong with this ownership?
Judge went 4 for 4 and they looooooost lol
I’m confused about Clase. Also smith with 4 pitches lol
Stole this win for Bibee who really battled to get through 6 solid innings tonight. That’s a series win with a chance to sweep the Yankees tomorrow. Things are looking pretty good.
We’ve already won a series against the Yankees?????!!!
WHAT YEAR IS IT?!
I don’t think Cade Smith has ever heard of the concept of mercy.
Blacked out during this series so I spent today’s game biking around New York in 70-degree weather listening to Hammy call a comeback victory into the sunset. How can you not be romantic about baseball!

I love how Kwanny stands there with Andre like a respectful little schoolboy with his hands clasped behind his back, it’s too cute 🥺

I still like clase but man Cade has that dawg in him
1st in AL !?
Love it when the Cavs and Guards are rolling at the same time. Chance to sweep the Yanks and go 2-0 over the Heat tomorrow!
Tigers losing 2-0 to the Padres!
Quiety the best team in the AL record wise and 3rd in all of MLB… and I still think they have another gear
Once again! FUCK THE YANKEES! Feels good to win a series against them.
Bibee struggled but he got through it and helped our bullpen. And Cade Smith masterpiece 9th inning. – four pitches.
Let’s go for the sweep tomorrow! That would feel great!
Cade Smith has massive testicles. He is the type of man you thank for making love to your wife
Lets not be too mean to the Yankees, these games were like the world series to them! As evidenced by their defense…

Preface: I did not interact with anyone there, but their sub is in shambles.
A merry fuck the Yankees to all who celebrate!
This felt like a playoff game and I loved our resilience
The past few years have been really hard for me, especially dealing with depression and anxiety. I’ve been going to therapy and taking medications. The past week or so, I’ve felt about as good as I have in years. I feel normal again, I think.
Baseball has always been a good distraction and I’m glad the Guards are playing well. I appreciate this sub, the threads, and you all. Thanks for reading–feels good to put it out there.
Also, fuck the Yankees.
Lol
