Woah take it easy! Already scored 3 in the first. That's a whole week's worth of runs

 

[gotime909]

5-0 now after Doodoo hits a 2 run homer

 

[Mitchrapp]

9-0. I wish they could balance these runs for the week.

 

[Mitchrapp]

And Olsen getting so much run support.

 

[gotime909]

9 runs scored in 2 innings and not a single walk. Swinging the bat can actually lead to runs? Who would've thought?

 

[gotime909]

Gio making plays at 3rd

 

[gotime909]

Also, Canha has looked pretty good at 1st. He's been fortunate that he hasn't had to deal with Javy's throws tho

 

[Mitchrapp]

That was a good at bat by Keith. 9 pitch double.

 

[gotime909]

Triple shy of cycle already

 

[kalinecountry]

Urshela Kelly and Canha..all should bring wildcard hard throwing relievers in deals..they aren't worth more than that.. if they can get some guys throwing 97+..they need them.

Tigers scored 9 before making their first out in the 2nd inning.

Colt Keith through his 2 PA today is at a 120 wRC+ since 5/1. That would be the 6th highest for a 2B in that time frame among guys with a minimum of 100 PA.
Colt Keith since 5/6
37/123
300/333/447

Matt Manning ruining his career in 2024..

What's going on with the Bally Sports tv broadcast team for the Detroit Tigers? First, Craig Monroe taking a leave of absence. Now haven't seen or heard from Johnny Kane in a couple days, and there is a new female broadcaster, Danielle Bruce, who is doing in-game interviews.

Tigers Jackson Jobe looks very comfortable. Through two scoreless of 23 pitches, 17 for strikes. FB velocity still sitting 95-98 MPH. Pitch mix of FB, SL, Change, and Cutter so far today. As mentioned, is cleared to go 55 pitches or three innings, whichever comes first.

Seriously, has a releiver stranded a single runner that a starter left on base this year???

Right-hander Reese Olson shut down the White Sox while receiving run support from the Tigers, virtually for the first time all season — the Tigers scored nine runs with him in the game Sunday after averaging 1.5 with him on the mound in 14 previous starts. The 24-year-old made it count, allowing two runs on four hits with zero walks and three strikeouts across 6⅓ innings and throwing 97 pitches to pick up his second victory this year.

Glad we scored for Olson. He deserves it. He Should have so many more wins. Planted flowers and tried to move a small tree. Hopefully it will take to it's new spot. Much need series win. Swing the bats. Strange.

It doesn't really feel like a series win.. Not being able to sweep this really bad team.

Toledo scored 20 runs yesterday.
Spencer only 1 hit.
Meadows had a great day.
Dingle had a really great day.
