I thought I recognize the Brewers pitcher. I thought Tyler was out of MLB. He has been pitching well this year.

 

[biggunsbob]

Greene sitting. Carpenter in against the lefty. I just cant believe there isn’t a better option than Kreidler. Just ridiculous he gets at bats

 

[biggunsbob]

Double by Ibanez scored Torres. Spencer just missed one but Dingler hits a 0-2 pitch to the gap in left. Tigers lead 2-0.
Damn carpenter crushed a 0-2 pitch to the gap in RF.
Bottom first.

Top of the 2nd.
JB lead-off Walk !
Kreidler gift E-5 . Should have been a dp.
(It was a Taylor made ground ball)
McKinstry FC 3-5.
Malloy single to RF rbi. 3-0 tigers.
Torres line drive 1-4-3 (off of Alexander) rbi (4-0 tigers)
Ibanez 1-3. Hit Alexander again in the Butt.
Bottom 2nd tigers lead 4-0.

two unearned runs sure does help !

Bottom 2nd .
Skubal is dealing . Back to back 10 pitch half innings for TS !

If Dingler keeps hitting he may find himself catching more than Rogers. That or in the DH more often

 

[Mitchrapp]

I almost kind of wish we hit another up the middle and hit the pitcher again.

 

[biggunsbob]

Tigers third .
Tork . Pop-out to second. First pitch swinging.
Dingler F-9
Carpenter K’s (looking)

Nothing wrong with first pitch swinging.

I remember Pat Caputo on 97.1, fm in Detroit saying he thought Dingler would have a break out year. Hope he is right.

Nothing wrong with first pitch swinging.

Sometimes. If you guess right.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I still wish Milwaukee was still in the AL. NL can have Houston back. Logistics wouldn't work but I'd like it better.

 

[biggunsbob]

Brewers 3rd.
Pop-out to SS.
K’s. (Nasty pitch)
K’s (Just filthy).

Another 10 pitch inning for TS.

I wonder why they changed ?

 

[Mitchrapp]

Sometimes. If you guess right.

Sometimes first pitch is best. I hate when someone lets a ball that is grooved down the middle for a strike. And then swings on a questionable one.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I wonder why they changed ?

For Houston is was t balance it out. 15 teams in each league. For Milwaukee I think it when Toronto and Seattle came, both to the AL so someone had to move.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Good bunt, terrible throw. Lol.
