Tigers vs. marlins 4-5-16 Game 1

[lonesometiger]

That was why we sucked last year . Lead off man gets to second and we can't get him in with productive at bats.

Kc dId that shit to a ws title

There really no power after McCann in this lineup. That's what made the 2nd inning so great Gose and Verlander setting up the plate for Kinsler.

 

[kalinecountry]

Justin Verlander is the first Tiger pitcher to record a hit on Opening Day since Mickey Lolich in 1971.

 

[lonesometiger]

Hits starting to add up Upton and Cabrera back to back singles.

 

[lonesometiger]

Deep out

Nick has to take the next step at the plate for the bottom of the order to be productive.

awesome opening day thus far.

JV looks good. Definitely starting to deal with his drop in velocity much better

DET Today

RISP 1-10 with 1 SF

They should be up at least 7-0, if not more. The one hit was a 2-out HR by Kinsler.

5-0 and some people still can't find something positive to post....

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

by in large they are getting good swings today though.

the 4th was a little pathetic after Iglesias was on 2nd with no outs. About it. Even Castellanos strikeout in the first he at least worked the count.

 

[kalinecountry]

Sharp, efficient performance from Tigers ace Justin Verlander through first five innings of team's season opener against the Miami Marlins. Has not surrendered a hit and has struck out four. He's at 67 pitches, with 100 the approximate cutoff point for him in his first start of season.

Pitch Counts

Verlander = 67 with no hits, no runs

Chen = 76 with 9 hits, 5 runs


DET has scored on Chen, but they really haven't him run his pitch count up.

Making it the distance doesn't seem likely but he's been great thus far. Very very encouraging.

His second half was overlooked by many. The record didn't show it but he was pretty good.

Some like to see an all round well played game. Some obviously could care less.

1st game of the year and you are starting that shit already.

I wish you two would just put each other on ignore and be done with it, it would save the rest of us a lot of headaches.
