Game 2013.58: Rays at Tigers

06.06.2013 34 comments

Detroit Tigers: 31-26, 1st Place (2 ahead of Cleveland). This afternoon’s game will be a rubbery affair between Detroit and Tampa Bay who have split the first two of the series, but also between Detroit’s Feast or Famine offense, who put up 10 runs Tuesday but 0 last night.  The indicator is twitching toward the [...]

Detroit Tigers: 31-25, 1st Place (2 ahead of Cleveland). Despite leaving all of 12 runners on base (including failing to score with bases loaded and nobody out), the Tigers offense was in Feast mode against the previously 8-0 Matt Moore, knocking him out after 2 innings on their way to a 10-1 victory. Anibal was [...]

Detroit Tigers: 30-25, 1st Place (1 ahead of Cleveland). It’s a big week in the D: Detroit take on the tough Tampa Bay Rays (who, while in 4th place, have a better record than the Tigers), then have a 3-game set with the Cleveland Indians. The Tigers just got back from a 1-4 road trip, [...]

30-24, .5 ahead and in first place, winning streak at 1. Torii “300″ Hunter is back in the lineup and Rick Porcello throws sinkers, so today’s victory is, of course, assured. The stone glove, Teflon hands, and paper bat of Ramon Santiago will not prevent it! Sorry, Ramon. I’m sure you’ll have a good game. [...]

29-24, still in first place by .5, losing streak at 4. Tigers sapping your strength these days? How’d you like to be an Indians fan right about now? Looks like both teams are trying to stay out of first place. “Go ahead.” “No, after you.” “Please, I insist.” “No, I really couldn’t.” “Age before beauty.” [...]

29-22, 1st place, 1.5 games up on Cle. Last night’s game was playing out rather nicely until Sanchez took a sharp detour in the 7th that resulted in a 4 run frame for the Pirates, and a 5-3 loss for the Tigers. The Tigers now find themselves in peril of the dreaded 1-3 series, or [...]

29-21, 1st place, 2.5 games up. What a game last night. Hate to lose a close one at home, but props to Pittsburgh. Grilli was even better than advertised. We always knew that he could throw heat, but that slider was nasty. Cabbie just looked silly, and I still have no idea what Prince was [...]

29-20, 1st place, 2.5 games up. Great team win last night. JV was good, not great, and the bats put up enough runs to cover up some poor 8th inning pitching and fielding. Valverde came in and gave up his usual baserunner (who somehow didn’t steal 2nd base – worst advance scouting of all time?), [...]

Thank you Jim Eggers, judpma and any and all vets, active military, those who sacrificed their lives for this great country (baseball and all) and all military family. ************ Well, now that the Indians are playing, like, well, the Indians, order has been restored [...]

Detroit Tigers: 27-20, 1st Place (.5 ahead of Cleveland). The Tiger winning streak ended at four last night as the Twins got to Doug Fister for three runs early, and then quieted the Tiger bats for the 3-2 victory.  The big blow was a home run by none other than Joe Mauer, who came to [...]

Detroit Tigers: 27-19, 1st Place (.5 ahead of Cleveland). Win streak: 4 “When you pitch a one hitter and the one hit you give up is to a guy with three batting titles, that’s one hell of a performance.” -Jim Leyland The Tigers re-took first place in style last night. Just 4 weeks after he [...]
