Tigers vs. twins 7-18-16 Game 93

[Rebbiv]

He was struggling before that though.


Aside from an amazing couple weeks in the middle of May, he's been subpar to his normal standards the rest of the year.

I agree. I was just pointing out that going to the AS game probably wasn't a rest. And I agree that he should be allowed to take a couple of days off. His Line Drive rate is down and he is hitting more ground balls. There is something off and it usually points to tired or injured legs in this case.

It would be nice if VMart could play 1st for a few days at the least.

I can't believe only three hits for the offense tonight... pffssst

 

[gotime909]

Couple add ons would be great

 

[lonesometiger]

What is really hard to believe is Tigers have only manages ONE run tonight!!!

 

[jas5lf]

Hopefully that's all we need. A win is a win, 1-0 or 10-0.

Hopefully they saved all of the runs for tomorrow with Sanchez going. Might need 10 tomorrow night.

I don't know the pitching staff got 10 strikeouts. That was nice.

Matt Boyd: Gave Detroit six shutout innings of three-hit ball.

Justin Upton: Belted a solo shot to left in the second, keeping it just fair of the foul pole for the first run of the game.

Tigers bullpen: Didn?t allow a run, or a hit in three innings.

Tigers offense: It was a win, but only just. Apart from Upton, only two other players had hits and none drove in a run.
