Mr. Tiger Al Kaline being interviewed pregame.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Thank goodness we didn't trade him.

1-0 Buck gives up a solo homer to whorehey.

 

[turok]

Thank goodness we didn't trade him.

Said that he signed with Tigers out of HS, b/c he knew that he had a good chance to be a starting OFer right away.

After Al retired @ the end of the '74 season, the '75 Tigers tanked and lost 100+ games.

Tigers go down in order, bottom 1st.

Mr. Tiger Al Kaline being interviewed pregame.

What did Al have to say about the payroll slash and all the trades, espcially Verlander??

 

[turok]

twinks push across another run in the top 2nd, 2-0.

Wasn't asked, just said that the Tigers weren't good when he started playing, and that the fans will see winning teams again eventually.

He has seen the Tigers make some very unpopular and ill-advised trades over the past 60 years, but he is loyal to a fault and won't badmouth ownership/brass.

The Tigers were thinking of trading Al back after 1965 to the twins for Jim Kaat and others. In the end said no.

Tigers look to be in full back stroke mode today.

 

[turok]

Being one hit so far in bottom 4th...twinks leading 3-0.

 

[turok]

10-2?!?

sheesh....is this a sandlot team or what?

Honestly this is the saddest I've ever seen a Tigers team. And I'm including 2003. I don't recall being absolutely jail sexed in every single game quite like this ever.

 

[lonesometiger]

Ridiculous Game in game out our pitching is under achieving. there era's are higher than there career average. And the offence has been too many two run scored games. This an unbelievable string of games. In the last 11 games Tigers have given 7 or more (12) runs in Eight of them!!!!!

 

[turok]

twinks 39 runs scored in 33 innings so far this series.

It's like Minnie hitting the ball when ever they want. And the Tigers are helpless.

 

[tigermud]

Tigers put the twins into the post season so they can lose to the spanks

Another day another blowout I've never seen a team this horrible

This September has been one of the worst months of baseball played by a Tigers team that I can recall.

 

[lonesometiger]

There is some thing real wrong with the Tigers!

Verlander 4-0, 28 innings and 2 earn runs for a 0.64 era with Houston!
