tony zarrella joining us now. watch, t. >> tony: a slow death. methodical shredding. the name of my high school band methodical shredding. it pains me to come out every week and kill this team. we knew the process. the guys in the locker room working their butts off trying to win a game, one game. nobody is in it to lose. the comedy of errors is maddening. they are in an area code and tackling and cowboys are that much better and we have the kind of game we witnessed and guys like joe haden it is new territory, ugly tear tone. 9 for 9 with no ends in sight. >> i have never been -- i have never had a win like this in any level i played at. it sucks and we just -- you sorry for yourself. we have another game coming up and quick turnover and we have to try to take it out on the ravens. >> tony: you know what's amazing, browns scored second most points in the afc second to the steelers and they have had a bye week and browns have not. i am trying to be honest. they are putting points on the board the defense is absolutely killing them and not allowing them to make the nex

cleveland 19 news sports director tony zarrella joins us now. home team won 9 out of 10 and sets up well for the tribe. >> tony: they couldn't ask for more dory kluber on the mound. bats can't get in a hole. they have to jump for a lead run at wrigley. coco crisp r.b.i. they need more than that f. they get to a situation with 6 out of kluber in the previous two starts in the world series and get to the bullpen, mark schwab they would be in phenomenal shape. jason kipnis needs help at the plate. he is the only one hitting right now. >> mark: oh, yeah t. would be nice if some of the guys get going. they have not hit well postseason. fortunately, this is where you feel if you can scratch water kluber is enough. you would like more than one or two. the way they have done this, winning the games one and two runs it's been unreal to see this run and how they have done it with things they have had to overcome. i said it a few days ago, i believe we would have botched the greatest indians story in cleveland history. the things they have overcome think t

tony zarrella here to break it down. any chance we get one win this season? >> tony: i don't know where. if they do, i will elaborate this despite what the front office has given the team. we have seen it all over the years and derek anderson send it of him and brandon he'd on stuck under an american flag but i don't think it's been this bad. it is not cody kessler's fault and not because he was built like a corner back and big strong and in over his head now and under attack because of a brutal offensive line. it is not josh mccown's fault at age 37 taking imaginable and hanging in there trying to will this team to a win. this is a collective failure players are are battered and bruised. >> negativity and keep it fighting and i really believe fighting through this does and will make us stronger. it is very tough. very tough. and how coach jackson lead us through the tough time. >> keep giving it your all. >> we have to stay positive. i know the season is no where close where we wanted it to be. you have to keep fighting. >> you still believe will you win? >>

let's bring in tony zarrella. tony, we will face tonight and people are saying he has got to get his slider together because he has been all over the place. what do you expect to see. >> tony: napoli called him wild. because of trevor bauer, we didn't know what we would get out of bauer and i didn't like the game 5 match up. if you look at t is the one guy that's come through and tomlin great in game 3. i will give you a stat and schwaby, i will bring you in on this. andrew miller, 17 innings, one run and struck out 29. cody allen has been lights out as well with 6 saves in the playoffs, zero runs and if josh tomlin could give them four or five innings, get ready to celebrate. what do you think, mark? i think they will go to the bullpen early especially if they have a lead and if you see tomlin in the danger zone with the cub line up with people on base and rizzo and bryan who hit the home run. the pitching is tremendous, partially because of tomlin. if they win and he throws well i can make a case he is the mvp.

tony zarrella is live at the q now with more of this. >> tony: you asked me what i am thankful for. i am thankful for this. i am back in this building. it's been a while. indians and world series greatest excuse there is and first let's talk the cavs. rg iii back on the football field for the fist time in a long time. broke a bone in his shoulder and has not played since. the ongoing debate is if and when he is ready to go will you put him out there. some argue if he is not part of the plan, short term if rg iii gives you the best chance for a win and avoid making history with the out there. he was out there today and has been cleared to practice. he has not been cleared for contact, though. obviously, he can move around and throw without pain and not willing to take it. he says i have a lot of football left. >> i can play at a big level and i have to continue to prove that. >> but, you know, i wouldn't want to do it anywhere else but i see it every single day. >> that's something special. and everyone will look at that. the guys in this locker room had a special quality and we have

>> romona: it probably doesn't help the cubbies had their we're not bitter, though, are we tony zarrella. >> tony: we're not bitter. i think we all feel the same way. two days is not enough time to get a grip on the emotions. wednesday night is one of the most incredible and draining nights we've ever experienced. yesterday i spent the day reliving every moment and listening to the call of the homer about 48 times. and then today, today we're starting to look forward because the indians are already making moves. terry francona extended through 2020. exactly what tribe fans want to hear. ragae. napoli, they believe he's going to have a lot of options but they want him back as well. and as for the pain of game 7, i asked how long this is going to hurt. >> there are a range of emotions that we're all feeling. pain is certainly there. i'm not sure that's something that's going to go away any time soon because we all desperately wanted to win that last game. but that won't overshadow the pride that we feel in thinking back andef and the grit, the resiliency, the perseverance they showed throu
