Bless You Boys Tigers Podcast 21: Jim Leyland in a nutshell - Crusty exterior, soft as a Twinkie on the inside.

Topics discussed included:

TBS is either awful or incompetent. Actually, they're both.
What an emotionally draining series!
There was too much love for Curtis Granderson.
Did the Yankees' Joe Girardi panic? Was he out-managed by Jim Leyland?
The Tigers' ALCS rotation.
Are the Rangers a tougher matchup for the Tigers than the Yankees?
There will be no changes in the Tigers' everyday lineup in the ALCS!

Are you as tired of the "Beat down, underdog city of Detroit's spirit is raised by their sports teams" narrative as I am?
Listener questions included rain delays, our ALDS MVP, Max Scherzer praise, stepping up in the next round, fearing Alexi Ogando, Al Alburquerque, lineup changes, the bullpen as a whole, we pick our NL favorite, and the return of the the lightning round!
And yes, we managed to squeeze in a mention or two of Brandon Inge. It's not a BYB Podcast without Binge/Cringe.

Detroit Tigers Team Notes

October 8 in Tigers history :

1940 - With only one day off, Bobo Newsom came back for the Tigers and nearly had enough to win Game Seven of the World Series. Cincinnati Reds Paul Derringer gave up seven hits in the first six innings but set the Tigers down in order in the final three frames for the 2 - 1 win, giving the Reds the Series.

1945 - Stan Hack's double made a tricky bounce over left fielder Hank Greenberg's shoulder with two outs in the 12th inning to score runner Bill Schuster and gave the Chicago Cubs an 8 - 7 win in Game Six to even the World Series with Detroit.

1972 - In Game 2 of the American League Championship Series, Bert Campaneris of the Oakland Athletics throws his bat at Detroit Tigers pitcher Lerrin LaGrow after being hit by a pitch. Both players are ejected and Campaneris is suspended for the rest of the series.
