Consult the film Major League or just ask me ... sometimes it rules being a fan of the Cleveland Indians. Last night's game and bare knuckles brawl with the Tigers was a great example of that. If you didn't see what went down, please visit our good friends at WaitingForNextYear for a video recap.

The minute it happened I signed onto AIM and told fellow Dugoutist Jon Bois about what was going down. His comments sum it up as well as I could hope to: "Gary Sheffield is like Barry Bonds Jr., and if I can't see somebody beating up Barry Bonds at least I can see this."

Tonight's Dugout is after the jump. /pumps fist

IlGrandeFausto: an it took me five minutes to find a spot on your old ass that wasn't covered in hard plastic, you like a damn dunkin' booth without the man
