Some here might have to take back what they said about Torii,

and kudos to Victor and another great f'n at bat, what a Griiiinder.

damn nice win... after posting 3 bloops and a blast i was looking up 1984 and i think we were swept by KC in the middle of the season after our great start and was going to point that out and still try and say positive with a 5.5 game lead....but i could be wrong... my darn laptop keeps freezing up..
damn that was a great comeback with miggy out..

Got out of the dentists office and caught the last 3 ABs in the car, the people that were behind me must have thought I was crazy. We really really needed that!

I do that shit too. And then I look around and realize no one else is listening to the Tiger game in their car and they must be thinking WTF is wrong with this guy????

Isn't that a great feeling, your screaming in your car with a Tigers homerun or in this case a game winner, and people are looking at you like you are going nuts or on drugs, happened a couple weeks ago with who else but Miggy driving home. LOL

Torii turns a dumpster-fire of a series into a mere trashcan-fire.

 

[manchild98]

I still can't believe they pulled that off.

So, regardless of what happens with the tribe tonight, I think Miggy should sit tomorrow. Don't even know if he can play but think he should sit anyways. He has to be healthy for the playoffs.

I'm quite glad to have been proven wrong on both predictions I made earlier .

As for Torii, that's more what I would like to see; perhaps he wasn't amped up to full steam when he pinch hit.

 

[spockmaster]

I really hope they put Dickerson's call up on the internet, I REALLY want to hear it.

 

[Thumb]

He was pretty loud.

 

[manchild98]

iggy in, but at DH. if we only tie this, who the hell plays 3rd? do we let the pitcher hit?

Leyland said thank god for Torii...because he was going to have to have the pitcher hit.

He COULD have had Avila play 3rd base.....

I'm fine with him getting a day off but he's not going to be healthy for the playoffs. This is what he's going to be. We sat him for 4 days in a row earlier, pulled him from games, etc. and he cannot run at all. It doesn't seem to help him at all.

Miggy: "I'm OK. Don't worry. I'll play tomorrow."

I was listening in my office... he was going crazy. Great finish and a much needed win!

Props to Putkonen, Veras, and Benoit for keeping the game within reach.
