Tigers vs. cardinals Game Thread June 19

[tigermud]

I won't completely crucify him since the pitch before was pretty wild.

under aggressive both times tonight with the bases loaded, roped a solid line drive single up the gut when nobody was on, that might say something.

Ok boys tack on a few for Big Potato !!!

 

[tigermud]

Damn nice quick 8th for Benoit, hell let him pitch the 9th if we don't get anymore.

 

[manchild98]

rocking chair 8th for Benoit all of 9 pitches,

Tigers lead 6 - 3.

Good. Now he's available tomorrow.

 

[gotime909]

Is it bad that I don't want us to score here in the 9th?

 

[boogerlovejoy]

oh berry.....verlander is gonna kick your ass

Do you think Berry has to carry around a Dora the Explorer backpack for a week or two after that play??

I do.

Laird with the GIDP ending that bases-loaded opportunity. He's now 0-for-6 this season, 0-for-2 tonight.

 

[manchild98]

Papa Grande is sitting down now in the pen and wincing.

 

[kalinecountry]

Something going on with Valverde??

Dan and Jim say he is hurt?

Coke warming up,

maybe use Benoit for a batter?

 

[tigermud]

Something appears to be wrong with Jose, Coke now up in the pen

 

[kalinecountry]

First time in two years -- since June of 2010 -- that Verlander has more walks than strikeouts in a game. He had 4 BB and 3 Ks. either 67 or 70 games from what I can remember.

Coke will be the pitcher.

 

[kalinecountry]

Valverde may have hurt himself in the Tigers bullpen warming up, and Phil Coke is warming up and pitching the 9th.

Man Benoit has been lights out after rocky April. All-Star worthy I'd say..

 

[manchild98]

Coke has 5 career saves...last one was last year in August in Tampa.

He was like that last year too. Once mid May came he started dealing.

 

[kalinecountry]

Villarreal warming up.

 

[manchild98]

Big out Phil.
