Delucci took a great cut to hit 96 up and in over the wall, short porch or not that's a great job. What irked me last night was the pitch selection. I'm not sure what was up with all the curveballs, but you don't need that in the 8th inning with a lead coming out of the pen. Very uncharacteristic for Joba, but I'm confident he'll bounce right back and dominate next time out.

Yeah, that's only as good as your next performance. With the booers, it's all about "What have you done for me lately?" Stop trying to make sense of your booing. It's just uncalled for. “One good performance and you’re back on the fans good side, thats the way the game is played.”

Give me a break. I pay good money to watch them on television and to go to their games and I buy their merchandise. What makes you any bigger a fan than me or anyone else? What makes you think you have the RIGHT to boo a player on YOUR team? How would you like it if people starting booing you in everything you failed or everytime you disappointed someone? I would love to see you getting booed by your significant other when you were trying to please them. I bet after a while of the booing, your performance wouldn't be any better. Think about it. Don't be jerks. I WOULD like to see them win, but it doesn't always happen. I think those of you that boo are spoiled and you make the rest of us look bad. Just support your team and quit acting like spoiled children. I’m sick of people saying they “pay good money.” Give me a break.

Pete's not an idiot. If he had thought that was the reason, he probably wouldn't have mentioned it. “Um, is it possible that they were booing the home run, the Indians, Dellucci… why are we all so quick to assume it was Joba they were booing?”
