Joba Chamberlain. Poor guy. What did he do to deserve the Cleveland Midges? The Midge Game aka the Bug Game was 2007 ALDS Game 2. And those 2007 ALDS Game 2 bugs went to town on poor Joba Chamberlain, causing a midge meltdown that led to a Yankees loss.

In this episode of Baseball Bits, a Foolish Baseball production, we'll trace the life cycle from Lake Erie midge to Cleveland midge swarm. And how that affected proceedings between the Yankees and the franchise formerly known as the Cleveland Indians, now the Guardians.
