1 - 0 mariners heading to the bottom of the third.

All-time DETROIT leads 217-198.

Another smallish all-time lead ala CLE, which could disappear during Avila's extended tenure as Tigers GM.

 

[lonesometiger]

Speaking of smallish our two new rooks have battings averages of .237, & .182, but OBP's of .348, & .325 ! Funny they can get on base but can't hit past their noise.

 

[turok]

Ohhh Booyyd....homeritis again and B2B.

 

[turok]

Hicks accidentally hits the ball, and it went yard...3-2.

 

[lonesometiger]

Boyd can not throw a game any more with out coughing up a HOMER!

 

[turok]

Rogers with his 4th already...Tigers take the lead 4-3.

 

[lonesometiger]

Ok so Rogers can hit it past his noise. That was an over statement. He needs to hit it more often. Still 4 HR in 34 is .11%

4 HR's in 7 hits = .571 He needs to hit more HE and leave the singles for MC.

 

[turok]

Goodrum slides home safely, 5-3.

 

[turok]

Demeritte scores on Mercer rbi single, 6-3.

 

[turok]

Maybe they can win this game for Boyd, but unless the Tigers go up by 5 or more late, there is always room for doubt.

Clownshow in the OF doesn't help.

Neither does walking the next batter w/one out.

And Matt coughs up his lead...6-6.

Uh-oh...another B2B...annd he gone...7-6 homeritis.

No win, just the chance for the loss, Matthew.

NRam in, another run scores 8-6.

9-6...l0lz!!

6 runs scored w/o recording another out.

NRam out..Hall in.

Douses the dumpster fire....for now.

Homeritis strikes Matt Boyd again.

 

[gotime909]

Shame we couldn't trade him when his value was peaked.

Shame we couldn't trade him when his value was peaked.

Are you saying he's going to stink next season? Or the year after?

 

[tigermud]

This is ridiculous for a second there I thought the tigers might win tonight!

Stupid mud

 

[gotime909]

Are you saying he's going to stink next season? Or the year after?

No, but by the time we have an offense he will.

 

[Mitchrapp]

No, but by the time we have an offense he will.

But no offense doesn't mean a pitcher can't pitch well. If somehow he lets say has a 3.10ERA next season with a boat load of k's but has a record of 3-10 it won't prevent teams from wanting to trade him.
