In the immortal words of Bob Uecker in Major League “The Indians win it! The Indians win it! Oh my G-d, the Indians win it!” I think that pretty much sums up the MFY-Indians ALDS series. Eric Wedge and the Indians tried to screw it up, even giving up a home run to Ms. October, A-Rod. But they held on and will now be playing at Fenway on Friday. While I’m sure I’ll be focusing on the Indians in the upcoming week, the truth is this post is about the MFY, and their failure to get past the divisional series for the third straight year. $200M payroll = one playoff win.

For as happy as I am about the MFY getting to play golf this offseason, Suzyn Waldman was equally distressed. Listen to her post-game comments:

She is single-handedly ruining all women broadcasters chances of ever announcing for a major league club. Waldman often makes Erin Andrews look like a member of Mensa. Honestly, how do you cry on a broadcast? Even Geena Davis knows that “there’s no crying in baseball.”

I should also point out that Chip Carey is flat out unlistenable. Every single at bat towards the end of the game was “Could this be A-Rod/Posada/Abreu’s last at bat in a Yankee uniform?” When Torre went to the mound to bring in Rivera he went on and on about “This could be Torre’s last time to make a pitching change as a Yankee.” Jesus christ, just let them play the game. The world isn’t going to end with every at bat. If I have to listen to this asshat for the NLCS I might just mute the whole series. However, I think we’ve now found the hall of fame worst collection of playoff broadcasters. I mean, how could you beat Carey and McCarver in a 7 game series. Every baseball fan would look like a bobble head doll by the end.

So MFY fans, enjoy the rest of the playoffs. The rest of America can now.
