Seriously, soto?? are you shitting me, he blows this year.
a f'n homerun??

 

[tigermud]

i think that guy was 1 for his last 20 before that, geesh...Jv's got a bit more fine tuning to work out I guess, gawd that was horrible

 

[tinselwolverine]

Shower time.

Meanwhile, I love these Taco Cabana commercials; I watched that little girl grow up...

ERA jumped to 3.17. I am shocked by those last two bad pitches. Ahead 0-2 and 1-2 and he hangs two pitches right down the middle.

Well hopefully this one of those turning points we'll look back on later in the year as something that focused him and made him go on a dominant run.

 

[manchild98]

Soto was batting .170 with no homers....he pretty much had his Don Kelly moment.

 

[manchild98]

JV's shortest outing of his career? Is that what Mario just said?

 

[kalinecountry]

Verlander's ERA jumped from 1.93 (9th in MLB) to 3.17 (44th).
2.2 IP, 6H, 8ER, 2BB (both with bases loaded, 3 K, 1 HR.

I think he said 3rd shortest of his career

I think he said 3rd shortest of his career

Matches 3rd-shortest outing of JV's career (April 13, '06);
Only shorter outings; 2.0 vs. NYM on 6/22/10; 1.2 vs. NYY on 9/1/08.

Time for our hitters to lift JV up, you know he feels awful. 4 run game.

 

[tinselwolverine]

Shit, all we need is five more of them, and for the bullpen to hold...

 

[manchild98]

Peralta homer. Who would have thought JV and Darvish would have given up 12 runs through 3 innings.

Kate does NOT want to see that guy tonight...

First of all, she doesn't wanna go to mother fuckin' Dallas EVER...

 

[tinselwolverine]

Peralta homer. Who would have thought JV and Darvish would have given up 12 runs through 3 innings.

I would have NEVER thought...

And I didn't even know they were the two starting pitchers until I turned on the game tonight!!!

 

[kalinecountry]

Verlander tied a career-high allowing 8 ER.

 

[tigermud]

Good job downs, hold it down we'll get back in this

 

[turok]

Had a bad feeling about this game, but kept my fingers off the keyboard.
Still early but the BP will have to do what Verlander couldn't.

Good job Darin.

 

[manchild98]

62 mph.

 

[manchild98]

VMart pretty much swings at every 1st pitch.
