Lange to the rescue....Seen enough of him.

 

[tomdalton22]

just got home from some work appointments. Checked ESPN to see what time the Tigers play. Looks like I missed most of the game. Looks like a sweep is coming.

Rogers saving Lange from a beatdown.

 

[gotime909]

How many years of lange not being able to throw strikes is it going to take before we move on from him

 

[Mitchrapp]

Lange imploded.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Pop up king.

 

[Mitchrapp]

That was a good at bat by Keith.

 

[lonesometiger]

Maybe Carson Kelly has a clause that says he doesn't have to play when down by 5 runs.

 

[lonesometiger]

need 5 like that going to happen

Greene swung like he was trying for a 5-run home run.

well, that's what they needed

 

[lonesometiger]

ouch ouch stop using the handle

 

[Mitchrapp]

well, that's what they needed

So maybe he was on to something.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I just got home from a root canal so I'm pretty numb to this loss.

Greene has been terrible lately

Welp KC just made us their bitch. Whoever turned that team around deserves some credit, it felt like we were playing the 96 yankees. But i'm thinking thats what the diamondbacks thought of the tigers the first 2 games of that series, and they were in the world series last year. Still early, but still dejecting.
