Game 108 Tigers vs. orioles August 4, 2017

Did it? Couldn't really tell and if it did then wouldn't it be a hit batter, really trying to understand how that was a k

Should have been bases loaded 1 out. JV and the Tigers caught a huge break.

Cabrera on mechanical struggles at plate: ?It?s about my eyes?.
Detnews

Cabrera said before the game that timing was only part of his struggles at the plate.
?It?s not just about that,? he said. ?It?s about my eyes. You can see the ball, but you can?t hit it when your eyes are moving.?

When Cabrera is himself, when he is hitting the ball hard to all fields with power, his swing is picture perfect ? a clinic unto itself. The positioning of his hands, his balance through the swing, his plate coverage and bat speed through the zone, and the stillness of his head and eyes are textbook.

This season, for probably a number of reasons, he has struggled to keep his balance through the swing, which makes it nearly impossible to keep his head still and his eyes on the ball.
 
Web gem by Iggy and nice stretch by Miggy.

Outdone by Meathook with a spectacular catch to rob a HR. That ball kept carrying. Looked like it was going to be warning track fly ball.

Upton's 2nd grand slam this week. He had one July 30 vs. Houston.
He has seven in his career.
 
Nice leaping catch Mahtook,

3 more outs,

Talk about someone else to close tonight with Greene pitching last 3 games.
 
Watching the Orioles broadcast on MASN. Have to say these guys are knowledgeable, entertaining and provide some good insight throughout the game.
