The Indians were in the city of angels last night, Los Angeles. Unfortunately, hitting the ball was a devil of a time as the team, losing 1-0 to the Dodgers. Corey Kluber got the start, and the loss, going 6.2 innings, giving up 6 hits, 1 earned run and recorded 5 strikeouts. The Tribe will be back at it again late tonight, as Justin Masterson is expected to go against Josh Beckett. First pitch is at 10:10 PM.
Also, don't forget that the United States will take on Belgium this afternoon in the World Cup knockout round. The match starts at 3 PM on ESPN.
Popular, cult fan favorite, television comedy "Community" has been saved! NBC cancelled the show this year weeks after its season 5 finale. Yahoo and Yahoo screen have picked up the show for a sixth season with 13 new episodes! I for one am VERY happy to not have lost a great, smart, clever comedy.
