Tigers vs. braves Game Thread April 28

[manchild98]

Once of my pet peeves just happened with announcing crews...Hershiser just spent time talking how Hunter is leading the league in batting average...then less than 2 minutes later Schulman gives the stat to us in a voice that says this is the first time he's heard that info. Listen to one another.

Jackson flys to center,

Hunter strike call, ball low, swings and misses a changeup off the corner, curve drilled foul, swings and misses another change,

Cabrera fastball fouled back, fly to center,

yeah sometimes they talk and talk too much for the sake of talking, or haven't done enough homework on the teams' players.

Here we go...another 12+ strike out game tonight.

 

[kalinecountry]

Fister pitching 2nd inning,

Johnson one hops to Infante,

gattis strike call, fouls one off his clown shoe, curve waves at it,

fuggla 2 and 1, drive pulled foul down left, fastball just off the corner, strikes out swinging on the curve,

Fister fisting with 5 strikeouts and 27 pitches.

Remember when Tigers traded for Doug Fister and he rarely threw a curveball? He's struck out 3 of last 4 hitters with it. 5 K's thru 2 inn.

Sanchez might only hold that record for 2 days at this rate

We're going down just as easily as the Braves are right now.

Damn Tooey put a charge in that, nice swings from this kid.

 

[kalinecountry]

There's the first hit, runners first and second,

 

[manchild98]

Omar is now 17-36 at home...472 average.

 

[manchild98]

3-0 aj!!!!!

 

[Thumb]

Atta boy Ajax!

Nice job Pena and Infante getting on base for him.

 

[kalinecountry]

There we Go.......Homerun Austin Jackson!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tigers lead 3 - 0.

In span of 3 batters, Minor loses perfect game (Pena walk), no-hitter (Infante single) and shutout (likely longest homer of A-Jax's career). with Jackson's man-sized home run over the University of Toledo sign behind the visiting bullpen.

 

[johnny2x2x]

Beautiful look at his swing there. Boom!

 

[manchild98]

He killed that 83 mph off speed shit.

 

[kalinecountry]

minor with 26 pitches this inning now with 48,

Tigers lead 3 - 0.

 

[manchild98]

Fister hits his 7th batter so far this year.

 

[kalinecountry]

Fister with another hbp...damn.
