I'm really pissed. This has been an image that has resounded with "home" for me, having grown up in the Cleveland area and having been an Indians fan my whole life. I've been to so many games, I've taken my kids to their games, I've worn their shirts proudly and rooted them on. I was watching the final playoff game at a bar in 1997 when the final play resulted in their loss and the whole bar, all at once in unison, said "SHIT!" They've killed a tradition.
I'm originally from Cleveland, now i live in a significantly more rural area of northern Ohio. I still call the stadium the Jake.
I'm trying to remember if this was when Jose Mesa blew the save, and faced a lot of ridicule from Vizquel.
