Rays have gotten 45 pitches out of Verlander last two innings, 89 for game. But he's going on extra day's rest.

They mentioned on the radio he is on pace for 250+ innings unless he gets shutdown late if we don't need him.

ump is becoming a bit inconsistent. JV strikes out Joyce anyway.

Pitch 102 K's Zobrist, still plenty of gas in the tank for the 7th.

 

[jdbaker1]

Better inning there, could we PLEASE get a couple more runs now.

 

[cmlfactor]

Take THAT!!!

Verlander 6th inning,

ffjoyce fastball at 96 on the corner fouled back, curve at 79 strike call, fastball outside, curve at the knees and FF ump says no gameday says it was a strike, slider inside, fastball foul tips anyways,

damon strike call, one hop grounder past Santiago to right center and gets to second on a hustle double, shyt,

longoria fastball high, grounder to Betemit holds the runner and throws to Kelly at first,

zobrist fastball fouls it back, 99 fouled back, Verlander at 101 pitches here, swings and misses a curve,

Verlander with 102 pitches,

Tigers lead 2 - 1.

funny that the concencus is JV is having an off game and yet he has 8 ks and has only given up 1 run on a homer :/
