Laird left tonight's game due to left hamstring cramping. He is day-to-day.
not as bad as it looked and led to believe.

Need to get this run home. Westbrook is shutting us down tonight.

Need to get Westbrook out of the game, damn groundballs.

He's just over 80 pitches. Still has another inning or two left if they don't get to him.

it's high octane power arm FB hitting team, need to identify the guys that can handle the less than high octane arms better and adjust the lineups as needed.

Gave up 10 hits but Rick made it 7 innings and only gave up 2 runs. I think that will be it for him even though his pitch count is low.

 

[biggunsbob]

Ok everyone concentrate...Rick needs some run support!!!!!

 

[biggunsbob]

damn no grind-ability when you need it...

Porcello: 7 IP, 10 H, 2 R, 2 ER, 1 BB, 2 K, 86 pitches 55 for strikes.

 

[kalinecountry]

Tigers batters have shown patience and forced westbrook to throw 92 pitches for 7 innings, 13 pitches per inning.
that's showing him..........

 

[jas5lf]

What a gift. No way that was a strike. lol

 

[manchild98]

Big K for out number 2.

 

[gowings2004]

jesus fucking christ!!!

 

[manchild98]

Omg.

 

[kalinecountry]

Jhonny chin strap costs the Tigers a run,

 

[biggunsbob]

I wanted to walk YM... But still JP should have made that play... Fresse has been a tad cold lately i thinkk

 

[jas5lf]

Better score some runs for Turner tomorrow. I have a feeling we're going to need quite a few. Shit.

Lohse has an ERA under 3. Great. We need to win this tonight.

 

[tigermud]

8th inning, top of the order.. it's now or never.

 

[kalinecountry]

Villarreal now has at least one strikeout in 12 consecutive outings.

and probably as many consecutive 4 out innings due to Tigers defense. F

 

[biggunsbob]

Damn a 3 run homer should would be nice but that would require base runners
