Boston @ Tigers, Game #4

[tomdalton22]

bottom of 4th and the Tigers lead 1-0

Torkelson has the day off. Not sure I would have done that. Let him play. He will get a hit at some time. He certainly won't get one sitting on the bench.

Hinch said that it was a scheduled day off, because Castro needs to see action. It's a long season, and Torkelson just played three games in a row. He will get his chances.

He is looking at it long term; you are looking at it the other way.....

 

[nydo77]

Torkelson getting more chances to get a hit is the least of the current offense problems. Give him a reset day after three days of frustration.

Team is just struggling in the cold weather to hit.

Ump misses a easy ball call for a walk.

To cold for this group lol.

Now it?s real cold. Until they start hitting I will blame the cold weather and the other teams pitchers.

Fulmer gives up a hit. Two sharp plays by Spencer and Tigers coming to bat in the 8th.

The current temperature in Detroit is 59 degrees. Rainy, yes, but if they can't hit in 59 degree weather, we might as well throw in the towel until June.

 

[nydo77]

That was the breakthrough hit we needed.

Well hopefully we can start to hit.

 

[gotime909]

Now hopefully Soto doesn't gag it away in the 9th

 

[biggunsbob]

Spencer just can't pull the damn trigger. Damn that's a cookie left on 3rd...
