New Radiohead Lyric Predicted Knuckleballer's Game Four Loss

One two three four
Wakey Wakey
rise and shine
it's on again, off again, on again

watch me fall
like dominos
in pretty patterns
Fingers in the blackbird pie
I'm tingling tingling tingling
it's what you feel now
what you ought to, what you ought to
reasonable and sensible
dead from the neck up
because im stuffed, stuffed, stuffed
we thought you had it in you
but no, no, no
[...]
you got melted to butter

Ask The Manager


As famous for his baseball expertise as for his burn-victim good looks, Cleveland Indians skipper Eric Wedge will answer your questions in this space.

Q: Skip, who do you like in the playoffs?

A: The Yankees have been winning playoff ball for two months. No margin for error and they stepped up. Threw a good scare into the Red Sox. Forget A-Rod. He's ridiculous. Look at that whole lineup. What's Cano batting, eighth? Up and down, you never get a break. And just when you forget about him, Jeter will pull off a miracle. And those kids. Jesus. Joba will make you helpless and Duncan will make you pay. There's no getting around that ballclub.

I pick the Yankees to take it all.

Postgame Update:
It seems Wedgie doesn't know what he's talking about after all. You can still leave a question for him anyway. In the comments. If you want. I don't know why you would. But go ahead.

Cleveland Rioters Shout "Death To America"

CLEVELAND -- Angry Clevelanders took to the street yesterday calling for foreign ballclubs to go home following six regular season losses and no wins against their playoff opponents, the New York Yankees.

"Death to America," some of the protesters chanted. "Death to foreigners."

Cleveland native and Yankees owner George Steinbrenner described the frustrated rioters as "scum" and "rabble." He pledged to send 50,000 ballpark security guards to the troubled region, adding, "those who want violence in the name of baseball, hatred in the name of baseball, have no place in the American League."
