keppinger with a soft liner to Jhonny and pena is doubled off second, thanks.

Villarreal out and Coke sprints in from the bullpen.

Man what a break that was!!!!! Holy thank you Carlos P.

 

[cmlfactor]

Hit and run gone wrong?

 

[jdbaker1]

Well, that could have been worse. We still have the lead but with the way Valverde has been pitching we probably need a couple of insurance runs. Time for a crooked number to go up on the board.

 

[jdbaker1]

mudhen better not screw this up, my animosity for the guy is already starting to come back.

 

[jdbaker1]

Those are big runs out there.

 

[jdbaker1]

Shit, well, BB, time for another one.

 

[cmlfactor]

At least Ajax continues to make contact.

 

[Thumb]

Happy Birthday Brennan.

 

[jdbaker1]

Hell yes.

 

[jdbaker1]

Big day for the birthday boy.

 

[cmlfactor]

And 4 of the 2-out variety. The ones that really sting. Gotta love it.

Back to back singles for Peralta and Dirks to start the 7th,

Raburn 0 and 2, high chopper over pitchers glove and only play for shortstop is to first, gets the runners to second and third,

pitching coach out to talk,

Jackson up with infield playing in, slider in the dirt blocked, swings and misses, takes high, foul tips a 94, line drive right at the shortstop, crap,

pitching change lefty to face Birthday Boesch, takes a strike, fastball low, swings and foul tips a belt high fastball, fouls back a knee high 97, takes a 95 and lines it straight up the middle, both runners score,

Tigers lead 5 - 2,

Cabrera takes high, fastball fouled back, lined down right foul, fastball up and in, changeup fouled back, high fly foul, changeup in the dirt blocked full count, slider ground foul, high fly to right,

Tigers 5 - rays 2.
