They set off some noisemaker fireworks after every half inning this time of year to keep the birds returning to the lake off of the field and out of the park. If not they will flock all over the field and have been hit by fly balls and whatnot.

Guardians need to seriously work on getting the bats to wake up... in 6 of the last 8 games they've not been to put up anything you could call run support. (BTW, I can accept a guy coming off of the DL and not having his stuff in his first start... I get it.)
Depends... I don't put anything past these guys. It's just gonna hang on how good Lester looks... if he's as unimpressive as his past two starts maybe, but if he's his normal self no.
Now you face a decision... is it all over and you let the guy stay out there for a glorified rehab start, or do you pull him now and bring in the long man and pretend to still be in this game before your first at bat.
Kid is throwing in the low 80s, everything that's a strike is hanging over the middle of the dish, and he has no action on the throw... not ready to come back. wow.
Kid has no control today... just laying everything right over the plate.
Whoever said this kid was ready to come back, and against the Red Sox no less, should be taken out back on put on the executive DL with a baseball bat.
