Coming into the playoffs the Indians were the most anonymous team in the AL. Most sites didn't give them much chance to beat the big bad Yankees in a series (except ESPN strangely enough). Those of us that have been following the team have been arguing that this team is pretty good however. While this really isn't a time to celebrate (there's more baseball to be played) it is really satisfying to beat the Yankees and to prove CNNSI and Sportsline incorrect.

What was the Vegas line on the series, anyway? Chip Caray mentioned late in game 4 that the Indians were on the verge of "upsetting" the Yankees. That surprised me. Would it really be an upset if a 96-win team with home field in the series beat a 94-win team?

Honestly Chip Caray can suck my you know what.

Caray (in a low, unenthusiatic voice): And Johnny Peralta doubles down the left field cap, 1 more run comes in, Tribe leads it now 4-1 (or something).

Caray when the Yankees get ONE single: AND HERE COMES THE YANKEES!! THE OFFENSIVE JUGGERNAUT HAS NOW AWOKEN!!! IT'S ABOUT TIME!!!! THE INDIANS ARE IN TROUBLE NOW!!!

I think he meant upset in that "my team didn't win" kinda way.
