Tigers vs. Angels August 17, 2021 Game 121

[biggunsbob]

Ah oh.
Did Jack?s Mouth get him in trouble again ?

I didn?t hear it but what did Jack say ?

 

[biggunsbob]

This never should have happened. Throw that .186 hitter a strike and he swings over the top of it. Soto trying to be to cute. Should blown that hitter away.

 

[biggunsbob]

Angels have 9 walks. I think I heard on the radio that they are in the bottom half of the league in walks. I?d have to check that.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Don't they always say closers struggle in non saved games.

Locked On Detroit Tigers Podcast: A Rough Night in Comerica. 35 minutes.

From Miguel Cabrera not getting anything to hit, to Gregory Soto blowing the 9th, to the broadcast booth making insensitive comments... just a rough night all around to start off the series against the Angels.

Record with different catchers starting:

Haase = 24-18 .571 WPCT

Rogers = 20-15 .571 WPCT

Greiner = 9-13 .409 WPCT

Ramos = 5-17 .227 WPCT


Pitching with each catcher:

Rogers = 3.97 ERA 1.26 WHIP .718 OPP OPS 2.55 SO/BB

Haase = 4.13 ERA 1.34 WHIP .738 OPP OPS 2.47 SO/BB


Ramos = 5.06 ERA 1.51 WHIP .756 OPP OPS 1.94 SO/BB

Greiner = 5.56 ERA 1.49 WHIP .856 OPP OPS 2.04 SO/BB

 

[Mitchrapp]

So you're saying Ramon and Greiner stink? Probably need to go further like who did each catcher play against and the starters that pitched.

 

[tinselwolverine]

This don?t merit its own thread but it?s getting a little national and probably international buzz. Apparently Jack Morris said something about Otani considered a little racially insensitive. Scroll down the page and there?s a screenshot of some guy Spencer Wheelock?s tweet of the play by play of what Morris said and a follow up apology.

If this was the politics board I would have spelled follow and apology a little different but it?s the family board so I?ll keep it nice.

 

[tomdalton22]

he's a shitty color commentator anyway. or should I say African American commentator? It's all very confusing

 

[Mitchrapp]

The words itself don't seem racist "be very very careful." But I don't know the way he said it.

Listen to other MLB broadcasts and you might think Morris is top drawer.

I posted a link to the audio and where to find it in the link in #31.

 

[biggunsbob]

You just can?t say what Jack said the way he said it. He should know better.
