Breaking ball is ridiculous tonight, KC.

 

[kalinecountry]

career high in strikeouts for Smyly now with 8 and in the first 12 batters faced.

Breaking ball is ridiculous tonight, KC.

Dan and Jim calling it off speed curve like a changeup, motion and arm speed is same.
Hope we can have a Tigers victory cigar at this rate.

nice. medium bodied with Nicaraguan and Mexican longfillers, Nicaraguan binder and a robust Nicaraguan Habano seed wrapper.

I might have either 5 Vegas Miami or a Padron 4000 Maduro wrapper.

 

[gotime909]

Could this be the game Smyly makes it past the 6th?

 

[jas5lf]

Tigers pitchers now at 697k's for the season.

 

[kalinecountry]

Smyly's 9 strikeouts so far are the most in a single game by a Tigers rookie since Brian Moehler also had 9 on 5/23/97 vs. rangers.

They've got a good shot, especially with Scherzer going on Sunday.
