Pronk keeps rolling on....and nobody cares


I note that Travis Hafner hit a home run in last night's Indians/Royals game. The game story indicates that Hafner now has 158 home runs with the Indians (Baseballreference.com gives him 159 not counting the lone Texas home run. What's up?) which puts him 4 behind Ken Keltner for 10th in Cleveland history.

When I was in Cleveland a few weeks ago to watch the Tigers play the Indians, I did not hear anything about this historic chase. Not one thing! I saw Pronk's banner up in the stadium but nothing about this. I mean like zilch.

Come on Cleveland! This is history in the making. Get on board. It is not too late.

Granted it is not like the river is on fire or anything but it is something.

Right?

mmm...I'm not so sure that being 4 behind the guy that is 10th in club history is much of a historic chase. That sounds like a nice comment in the telecast on the day he ties and passes it, but not much else.

My fault as I need to refine my satirical writing techniques.

For what it is worth, Computer Boy contacted me to advise that this (my) post "stinks."

We need school to start real soon.
