N&N: Entire AL Central below .500

DUBLIN, IRELAND – NOVEMBER 15: (DIGITALLY CONVERTED TO B&W) The old dark stairwells in the main stand at Lansdowne Road before tonights game which will be the last football match before it’s knocked down during the Euro2008 Group D Qualifier between the Republic of Ireland and San Marino at Lansdowne Road on November 15, 2006 in Dublin, Ireland.

The Cleveland Guardians remain in first place. The Detroit Tigers remain in first place.

Both teams are 18-19 but that mark is a half game better than the 17-19 White Sox and 17-19 Royals. The 16-20 Twins are just 1.5 games out. These are the saddest sentences I have written in some time.

Cleveland lost in KC last night by a 5-3 score. They didn’t look all that interested, but they were more interested in playing than they were on Monday. Baby steps!

Tiny silver linings

• Colin Holderman is pitching well.

• This Altuve swing.

• The game was over quick, in less than 2h:10m.

• Mike Trout homered, singled and walked twice to defeat CWS.
