Terry Francona went to the mound, told Blake Wood he made the team...

Monday, Cleveland Indians skipper Terry Francona went to the mound, told Blake Wood he made the team. FOX Sports via Deadspin:

"When I went to take him out, (catcher Luke) Carlin was coming and I told him to stay back there a little bit," manager Terry Francona said. "I went out there and asked (Wood) if he ever made the team on the mound? He was like no. I go 'well, you just did.' After that we came and talked to him the dugout but you could tell he was pretty excited."

Sweet. Indians president Mark Shapiro caught the moment in this excellent pic:


Now just imagine how much a surgical mask would have ruined that shot.
