Scherzer walks lahair on 4 pitches, although ball 3 was a strike call to Laird,

clevenger takes high, and laird out to talk, strike call changeup, fastball in near the knees, another low and away, strike call inside corner, slow grounder to Cabrera holds the throw to first and throws back to second runner rounding the bag gets back safe,

barney up and now a called wild pitch? should be a passed ball? runners second and third, and just like that you blink and Max with over 30 pitches with 0 outs, grounder to Peralta throws to first, runner scores from third, runner stays at second,

Every team and every game is a damn struggle... Like getting a tooth drilled on...

I got a wisdom tooth pulled yesterday.....WAY easier than watching this team.

 

[tigermud]

Cubs pitcher reaches his season high in K's already after only 3. I yi yi, were not going to lose to the cubs now are we?

 

[biggunsbob]

lol...this team is so frustrating.

 

[27tigers]

I thought Boesch was going to be a pretty good hitter when he came up, but he has not progressed at all in three years. He swings at seemingly everything but belt high fastballs.

 

[biggunsbob]

LOL Rod and Mario such company men... what about the time when Fister was pitching and we sucked for a month and a half..

 

[jas5lf]

Oh fuck.....Putkonen is back up. *facepalm*

dejesus full count, grounds to Fielder flips to Scherzer covering,

soriano pops to Worth in shallow right,
