In an early reporting...Steinbrenner acquires Moses for pitcher relief

Were those bugs on drugs? Steroids perhaps?

GO TRIBE!

The curse of A-Rod.

And don't EVER diss Rachel Sklar...she's informed, entertaining, and HOT!

No bugs on her.

Thw umpire said he had no plan to stop the game. He said he's seen far worse.

I played baseball in Little League and in high school in New Hampshire. Every player gets his own personal cloud of black flies. Unlike these innocent little Canadian Soldiers, black flies rip out little chunks of your flesh.

Any baseball player who is affected by a few gnats is just a pussy.

That was the best game I ever saw in my life. It just goes to show that God has a sense of humor and is an Indians fan

SADLY the yank-mees lost?

BULL ... SHIT!

GO TRIBE!!!

(For a left-wing blog and news source, I figgered my fellow huffpo visitors would abhor a right wing organization like the yank-mees.)

Forget the damn game,although the term "fly ball" has now taken on a new meaning:)

Why the hell were their so many bugs in the stadium?

More evidence of climate change?


Rick Lippin

Sadly is exactly right!!

I believe the bugs affected Joba Chamberlain, I've never seen anything like it - Imagine trying to throw a baseball to a small target with hundreds of little flys swarming around you and some of them flying into your mouth and into your eyes!

Sadly nothin.
Go Tribe, beat da Skankees in three straight!

The Religious Right Nuts see it as just one more plague on the Entertainment Industry. When will they learn that GOD stands ready to smite all who transgress him!

The swarm of bugs must be seen as a sign from the g-d worshiped in Cleveland, Oh, aka the mistake by the lake, that a series of plagues, similar to the plagues the g-d of Israel inflicted upon Egypt after Egypt's ruler denied a request Moses made of him, will be visited upon Cleveland, Oh & the region of the USA known as fly over country. The plagues are a sign from the local g-d that the war which the person the denizens of fly over elected POTUS has displeased the local g-d. The war must be ended at once or other plagues will be visited upon Cleveland, Oh & fly over country until the dense, obdurate denizens of this blighted force their leader, W, to end the war.
Many of the wretched denizens of this blighted region are students of a book called the Bible. It would be a good idea for them to restudy the portion of the Bible which lists the plagues the g-d of Israel visited upon Egypt till Egypt's ruler granted Moses's requests. It will give the wretched denizens of fly over country an idea of the harshness of the plagues which will follow the swarm of bugs over the Jake till the wars W started are ended. The guy upstairs doesn't play when he gets hassled. A shit storm could be next but don't bet on it. There is no telling what the big guy will do next because he is really pissed off at W & the denizens of fly over country.

What on earth could those bugs have been?

I lived in the Cleveland area and sailed just offshore the old stadium for years, but I never knew any bug plague other than the May/June "Canadian soldiers" which were mosquito-like bugs that simply landed and expired in great masses.

This sounds like something new.

Don't think HuffPost should be saying 'sadly'.

The Wall Street Journal will blame the bugs on midwestern middle class welfare wannabees. But we all know that all the New York City Wall Street trust fund faggots will be sucking their own father's cocks for their rent money when it comes time to pay up their $3000/month for their 400 sqft fag loft. Everyone on the west coast and in the midwest knows that if you live on the east coast, you're a trust fund fag!!!

It's 11:30 at night here in C-town and it's hotter than hell. I guess all those people that moved to Arizona can move back pretty soon....as long as they don't mind a few bugs.
