Tigers leave 2 stranded again. Three Righty’s K. Vierling, Ibanez, Perez.
Not the greatest at bats. Frustrating we can’t get a big hit.

 

[gotime909]

Ibanez and Perez with just awful at bats

 

[gotime909]

Rogers should be hitting top 3 today vs lefty. He's been our best rh hitter this series.

 

[biggunsbob]

Sigh. Error by Sweeney. Ball ate him up. . Must been spinning badly.

 

[gotime909]

Just can't get Kwan out. Pathetic

 

[gotime909]

We blew our chance last game. I don't like our chances today

 

[nydo77]

Ibanez and Perez with just awful at bats

Both appeared a bit over amped to me.

 

[biggunsbob]

Top 2nd 0-0. Come on Hitters. This is Boyd. !

 

[biggunsbob]

We blew our chance last game. I don't like our chances today

Sure did. So many chances with a runners in scoring position.

 

[biggunsbob]

No error for Sweeney. Infield hit.

 

[biggunsbob]

Just awful hitting by our right handed batters so far today.

Meadows 1 out double. Hit in 7 post season games in a row.

 

[biggunsbob]

Meadows steals 3rd.

 

[biggunsbob]

So damn frustrating. We waste yet another scoring chance.
Sweeney is lost at the plate.

Tigers had a runner at 3rd and one out and let Boyd off the hook again.

 

[gotime909]

Both appeared a bit over amped to me.

Especially after 2 of the first 3 walked.

 

[gotime909]

No error for Sweeney. Infield hit.

Awful change. That was an error

 

[gotime909]

With Sweeney on deck meadows should have tried. I'd rather test an arm than depend on Sweeney. Throw was up the line and he wouldve scored.

 

[biggunsbob]

I wonder why Meadows isn’t leading off ?

With Sweeney on deck meadows should have tried. I'd rather test an arm than depend on Sweeney. Throw was up the line and he wouldve scored.

Maybe but the throw did get there real fast. It would have been close. I agree Sweeney is so lost at the dish. Try it.

 

[gotime909]

Let Malloy bat vs Smith. I don't wanna lose his bat this early for a guy that will likely strike out.
