Cleveland Browns' Joe Haden having a ball with his Tribe masquerades


You never know what you're going to see at the ballpark.

Friday night some of the 33,774 fans who turned out to watch the Indians beat Seattle, 5-4, on Travis Hafner's walk-off homer with two out in the ninth inning, may have been surprised to see Tony Sipp, in full uniform, walking in the seats watching the game.

That would be unusual, to say the least, because Sipp pitched the final 1 1/3 innings Friday night to earn the victory.

So who was the Tony Sipp double that some fans asked for an autograph?  None other than Browns cornerback Joe Haden.  Tony Amato, the Indians' clubhouse manager, supplied Haden with the uniform.

Haden isn't done.  Later this season he wants to impersonate Michael Brantley during a game. During the Cavs' season, Haden attended games and sat near the bench wearing the uniforms of Anderson Varejao, Baron Davis and J.J. Hickson.
