That sounded like a home run off of Miggy's bat but just a long out.

 

[manchild98]

Encarnacion launches a batting practice meatball for a 3 run homer in the first. Glad I'm leaving to go out soon.

 

[hellifino]

[kalinecountry]

I wouldn't mind if they cut him following this game.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Come on, 9 run rally.

A bloop, another bloop, another bloop, another bloop, another bloop, another bloop, another bloop, a texas leaguer an a long HR and we're right back in this game.

Game on MLB in my area total lose out there. Must have lost count of the outs. And had a double hit over his head. Pack bags and send him to mudville.

[tomdalton22]

wow! I decided to clean the garage vs watching the Tigers. I think I made the right choice!

 

[jas5lf]

Holy shit Encarnacion has 3 HR and 9 RBIs in this game! Tigers getting pounded 15-1.

 

[Mitchrapp]

It's been 12 years since I've seen this much bad play by the Tigers.

 

[jas5lf]

Hey, we're only 6.5 games back of the second wildcard spot. Lol!

 

[SpartyNash]

I know it wouldn't have mattered an ounce in this slaughterfest but how the hell is Gorzellany on the roster? This guy has been horrible since day one this year

Lack of talent in the minor league system to get a replacement.. ? I'm guessing this.

Pretty much. Same reason Boyd and Farmer are pitching at the major league level.

 

[hellifino]

Where the hell is Phil Choke, when you need him? lol

 

[hellifino]

anyone remember me saying,when Price was traded,that this team is gonna be the laughing stock of baseball with no pitching. and there is no future in sight.Even if JV is back,we won't hit for him.guess I just been spoiled the last 5 years.
