Tigers @ Red Sox Game Thread, May 18th

Vmart is having a fantastic year thus far

Nice to see the announcers giving VMart some national fluffin' (and rightfully so) and then he does that.

 

[xer0]

Already 10 Homeruns for Martinez, and he only hit 14 in 159 games last season.

 

[kalinecountry]

Victor Martinez now has 10 home runs and only 9 strikeouts this season.

How do you hit a homerun off the monster?

Maybe he hits it so hard it sticks in the steel? In anyone could punch a hole though it, it would be Miggy.

 

[manchild98]

Who was the announcer that called that shot? Kruk?

It was Kruk.

 

[manchild98]

Sanchez rolls the Big PED over.

 

[manchild98]

Miguel Cabrera entered today hitting .444 with runners in scoring position and 2 outs over the last 3 seasons.
Miguel Cabrera's MLB-leading 23rd RBI in May.

Miggy covers a lot of ground in the batter's box.

Over the past three seasons, Cabrera is hitting .444 (56-for-126) with 15 homers in that scenario. Even when opponents try to avoid him, they can?t. He is 19-for-49 in those situations when the at-bat ends with a pitch out of the strike zone.

 

[michiganalex]

nice

 

[michiganalex]

so let's assume they are going for a SS at the trade deadline

 

[kalinecountry]

FU buster... you clumsy oaf,

 

[Branthrax]

so let's assume they are going for a SS at the trade deadline

I think that's a safe bet.

 

[manchild98]

Nice play Romine.

 

[xer0]

excellent play by Romine.

 

[michiganalex]

I think that's a safe bet.

defensively romine is decent but offensively is just what the fuck?

 

[dpinsea]

Two real nice plays from Romine. Looking like Iggy out there.

 

[gotime909]

I love his glove, but I think I'd rather use the DH for our SS and let the pitchers bat.

 

[michiganalex]

wow

 

[manchild98]

This time it works.

 

[xer0]

Kinsler is having a hell of a game.
