With that lineup, today would be an awesome time for Miggy to turn it on. Although this was the game going into the series that I tought we'd be least likely to win. Maybe we get lucky

Dear god Norris needs a haircut in a bad way

 

[tigermud]

Hey hey migster gotted a hit

 

[gotime909]

Early run! Good start

 

[Mitchrapp]

Wish that Collins one dropped..

 

[Mitchrapp]

I don't remember the last time the Tigers had 2 LH starters in the rotation.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Nice play, Nick.

Rogers and Robertson?

 

[Mitchrapp]

Rogers and Robertson?

Thanks.

 

[gotime909]

It still amazes me on how nobody throws strikes to Avila.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Yes.

 

[gotime909]

2-1 good guys! Nice hit!

 

[Mitchrapp]

It still amazes me on how nobody throws strikes to Avila.

It's one of those mysteries.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Nick is sure hammering that little white ball..

 

[Mitchrapp]

2nd walk that scores. Minor league bound if that continues to happen.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Little off at times but in the end, if this is the end, he had a nice game.

 

[tigermud]

Good lord that strike 3 call on kinsler was a foot outside

 

[gotime909]

Bullshit call on that 2 strike pitch to Hernandez. That was a great pitch and he got squeezed. Ends up getting an infield hit and Norris is out now.

 

[gotime909]

Ok, let's see who's coming in to blow a good start from our starter.
