shock waves from an earthquake on the east coast made the press box sway slightly and sent some fans toward the exits during the first game of a doubleheader between the indians and seattle mariners.
As the mariners were batting in the fourth inning tuesday, the press box high above home plate and the third-base line moved left and right and continued for nearly 30 seconds. Fans sitting in the upper deck at progressive field noticed the unusual movement

Is everyone okay over there? Normally we get the earthquakes, but my facebook and twitter feeds have been all about the earthquake... hope everyone's fine.

Just outside of DC, in the suburbs here. - - first day back from vacation in New England.

I have a home office in my basement and the wife and kids were upstairs. I never felt anything like that - - ever. The house felt like it was on skates. Yelled to the family "To the basement, NOW!!!" - - Probably not the best thing to do, probably would've been better to get outside. We're all a little shaken up, but laughing about it now. The kids are now outside playing with the neighbors. My wife and I aren't going to tell the kids what an aftershock is - we'll just be on guard a little.

Earthquake?

I thought the rumbling on the ground here in Pa came from Rex Ryan jogging somewhere north in New York

I'm in India now and there's an earthquake felt in RI. ******* bizarre.

The world, it's ending.
