Yikes . He was just guessing and flailing at that pitch . Come on Jeimer !

10 k’s in 6 innings from Turnbull!

79 k’s is one off of Toronto’s lead of 80 . Tigers have played one more game.

 

[lonesometiger]

Turnbull 6 innings improvement, 2 walks in 6 innings improvement, 10 strikeouts in 6 innings nice improvement.

Mercer lower outside wooden Indian strikeout. I would said something to the ump.

 

[Mitchrapp]

It was right over the plate.

 

[lonesometiger]

Home opener strikeout record 10 ties for 1st for Tigers.

 

[biggunsbob]

Trumbull’s 10 k’s ties the Detroit Record since 1914 Jean Dubuc beat the St Louis Browns 3-2 in 13 innings.. He pitched 12.1 innings and Hooks Dauss came in and ended up getting the win lol.

Crazy game Browns scored 2 in the top of the thirteen and the tigers walked it off with a three spot!

Tidbit
Dubuc was found to have guilty knowledge of the Black Sox scandal. Hey he was the scout who signed Tebetts and Greenberg !
