Tigers @ Braves 9-30-16 Game #159

[manchild98]

J-Up is still hot. Easy swing.

 

[zoombabyzoom]

Right, Ka-boom

 

[manchild98]

12 homers for J-Up in September. Now has 30 homers.

Not counting this game, we were 5-1 in Norris' last 6 starts. The only loss was Rodriquez's 5 run blow up against KC last week. He's been HUGE for us down the stretch!!

With 9 total bases tonight, Miguel Cabrera now has 2,952 total bases w/ Detroit, passing Hank Greenberg (2,950) for 9th in club history.

 

[manchild98]

No matter what happens I'm glad Brad let him start this inning. He's struck out the last 4 batters he's faced.

 

[gotime909]

Figured we'd go to the pen this inning with Norris at 100 pitches.

 

[kalinecountry]

In 36 games since his 3 days out of starting lineup, Justin Upton:
41 hits ? 17 HR, 17-1B, 7-2B

He's looking pretty damn good huh

 

[manchild98]

5 k's in a row.

 

[zoombabyzoom]

Red Sox pitched out of a jam still losing 3-1

 

[gotime909]

Someone should've came in and caught that ball for Norris. yikes

 

[manchild98]

Norris doing a bit of everything.

 

[biggunsbob]

Darn it Boston score some runs !!!!

 

[zoombabyzoom]

lead off double by Boston

 

[biggunsbob]

When that left his bat I thought it was a pop up to CF :/

 

[manchild98]

Way to show up big tonight kid. Nice job.

 

[gotime909]

Kind of seen that coming when the count got full. At that pitch count he knew he was getting a meat ball. Hell of a start regardless for Norris!

 

[nsonnett14]

Nice Redsox score on error , and Pedroia on 2nd with no out ..3-2 Jays

 

[nsonnett14]

Passed ball , Pedroia to 3rd no outs !!~
