Cleveland Wins on Extra Inning Walk-Off Balk
((ht: mlb.com))
Haha! Yeah, this really did happen.
The Cleveland Indians beat the Detroit Tigers 11-10 in 13 innings Thursday afternoon when Tigers relief pitcher Al Albuquerque balked home the winning run.

Believe it or not, this did happen because Albuquerque went and shook his body in a move that appeared to signal he was going into his motion.

The fans and the announcers celebrate....
But hey, a win is a win and the struggling Indians we're sure are more than happy to take it.
