It’s a slow day and the main Tribe story comes from Deadspin, I know. But it’s a Mike Clevinger feature and it sounds ridiculous. So, here you go.

Just now, I was preparing to show my press pass to the incredibly kind and friendly security man at the clubhouse door. He said, “I don’t need to see that, I know who you are, I’ve been reading you and watching you for years. It’s great to see you, Peter.”
