Holy crap!

Just came in from the pool and I’m seeing a five spot for the Tigers with no outs in the first. Saw the fourth homerun and then I see the before runs on the board before that. I had thought it was a leader shot.

 

[kalinecountry]

Four Home Runs in the 1st inning for the Tigers.
I was hoping for this with holland pitching for the pirates.
iirc a few years ago, Miggy hit a screaming liner that was about 10 feet high off of holland and the pitcher ducked out of the way and it landed to dead center some 440 feet out and had risen to I guess 100 feet high at apex.

Dude, me too!

It?s like we?re on the same psychic wavelength!

I remember waking up and thinking ?man, with Holland pitching for the Pirates, I hope there are four first inning homeruns for the Tigers.?

Hey Gardy. Nova appears to have lost it. Back to back lead off walks to start the 4th up
6-2.

Throw a damn strike damnit!

 

[biggunsbob]

Fly out to center one out !

 

[biggunsbob]

Get him out of there.

Single 6-3 now one out runners in 2nd and 3rd.
Wild pitch 6-4. 3-1 count.
Nova really sucks.
Strike out 2 outs.

While Mize and other a young tiger pitchers Sit in Toledo.

They could be pitching for the Tigers. This makes zero sense.

 

[biggunsbob]

4-3 for Last out . Just don’t get the pitches to the hitter before .

Waste a damn pitch damn it. Had him 0-2 and 1-2. Don’t even come close to the damn plate you Dumb ass. I just don’t get it. 6-5 now.

 

[biggunsbob]

6-5 top of the Fifth now.

 

[biggunsbob]

Great Tiger hitters going into Can’t hit mode again. Go down 123. Bottom 5th 6-5.

While I was looking for that clip and that mark, the Tigers fortunately have made it a little less exciting.

 

[biggunsbob]

Hitters wake back up Gardy was right !

Jones crushes one to center field. 7-5. Followed by a double Goodrum, and a double by Schoop 8-5.

 

[biggunsbob]

Collision between 2 pirate players. Ouch. I sure hope they are ok.

Schoop scores from 2nd on miggy’s foul out and collision.
9-5.

Damn. I was away from watching the game when the collision happened. Came back to see the replays. That looks nasty.

 

[coulomb]

So...... Tigers have scored 26 runs in the last 15 innings.

Gotta love pittsburgh.

 

[biggunsbob]

Cron walks. Goes to third on candy's single. Demerrte walks. Bases loaded 1 out.

 

[biggunsbob]

Crap Reyes gags and can’t put ball in Play. Missed a hanger too.
