Indians' season winds down

After Tuesday night's rain out, the Indians played yet another old-fashioned Twi-Night double header last night.

The last 2 home games of the season.

We were there. Could not pass it up no matter how awful the weather or tired our psyches.

And come on, Momma-cita will be having a milestone birthday in a few weeks. Had to get her name plastered all over the huge scoreboard wishing her a very happy birthday!

A time to say goodbye to our Progressive Field family and wish them an eventful winter and new year.

One last fling at the Terrace Club saying ciao to our attentive staffers who took very good care of us.

And seeing our boys take the field for the last time.

Well, they pulled out a split.

Always a bitter-sweet time for me, especially when we don't go to Postseason play.

Progressive Field is my home away from home.

If I could, I'd be there every single game of the season.

I am a baseball junkie, a Cleveland Indian baseball junkie.

I really enjoy watching the game and taking in the sights and sounds surrounding a MLB game.

I still stick to my convictions that the Cleveland Indians year after year have had a qualified team to take us to the post season. The coaching and management staff have let me down.

They have not prepped the players properly to get us to the big show.

Our young players certainly play with heart. They have some learning to do but they give it their all. That's a lot to be said seeing many veterans who think they have something owed to them just give the bare minimum.

I am going to go out on a limb hoping the off-season brings a new coaching staff to my liking....and say that the 2010 Cleveland Indians WILL make it to the Post Season. I know them. They've got heart!

And the ward went crazy!

Tell tale signs that even though Mom is ailing and definitely not at her best, she's better than she was 4 years ago.

Priceless moment today.

We were prepping for her dialysis session when a fellow patient said to Mom, "did you hear what happened to your team today?"

She shook her head no.

At first, he did not want to be the one to break the news to her but then acquiesced.

He said, "Eric Wedge has been fire along with his whole staff."

A huge shriek and Hallelujah echoed throughout the entire dialysis center sending the ward we were in into a frenzy of laughter.

It's rare to be happy or experience upside moments during the awful dialysis procedure.

But even through her rough weak and feeling like crap, Mom did it again.

She managed to put smiles on dozens of peoples' faces by just being herself!
