Game 2014.25: Tigers at Royals

We’re gonna win one, right?

It’s time for David Price to step up and be the ace that he’s paid to be. The Tigers made the game interesting last night with a couple of baserunners in the 9th inning, but fell short again to the mighty Royals. After starting the season 7-0, the Tigers are now 8-9 in their last 17.

Incredibly, Price doesn’t have much history against the Royals, having only pitched against them 3 times in the last 6 years. He somehow went all of 2013 and 2014 without facing them.

  1. Rod Allen ” thats a really good sign that Victor rips a FOUL ball”, before weakly popping out to CF with yet another RISP……..WTH!!

  2. Hey Casty ROTL20uts we teach our high school hitters get off the plate some look for something outside you can take up the middle or to Rf…..nevermind!

  3. Ingvila is off to a wonderfully predictable start. Thus far, over 40% of his trips to the plate have ended in a K. Nice.

      1. Yeah but we both know that it is highly probably that V-Mart will bounce back because he is who and what he is. And on that note, Ingvila is who and what he is too — that’s the scary part.

        By the way — nice throw Nick!

  4. 71 pitches thru 6….keep Price going! that’s what he is getting paid to do….

  5. hey Boys how about Mayweather getting $200,000,000 and Pacquio getting $100.000.000 for one nights work……and we thought Scherzer had a deal….wow!….

  6. Sure glad we have that instant relpay of Goss retouching second base on his way back to first…..WTF!!!!!

  7. Now, do you bring Price out in the bottom of the 9th or do you go with Soria??

  8. Great to see Price take over JV and Scherzers old job……Great job, good D…..barely ok Hitting, but the Sluggos with be elated in pounding out more than 1 run. …..Assmus will tells us how good Victor made his outs today….can’t wait…….better than watching Mayweather/ Pacqueio take peoples money!!!!!!…

    lets get 2-2 tomorrow. we need Sanchez to step up!

  9. We needed that masterpiece by DP because the offense is still missing in action!

  10. In the exact, I mean exact same play Gose got called out just occurred in the Texas/ Oakland game…same appeal..foot on third base side as first step after…exact……ruling SAFE!!!…..so much for replay…MLB at ita best!

  11. I really like that picture of Price in the snow…when I can forget how he did that day.
