Tigers vs. twins Game Thread August 14

looks like the suxs are going to win, 3 back now if we don't get our shit together.
 
OK somebody please explain to me why Infante simply didn't just execute a normal and regular 4-6-3 DP in the breakopen inning for the Twins....?

Because I sure as shit can't figure out why not...

So I think maybe I'll just blame it on the fucking umpire...

The runner at 3rd still would have scored in this case. They wouldn't have been able to double him up the regular 4-6-3 way....too fast It wasn't a dumb play. They would have and should have gotten the double play if they could execute a rundown.
 
Just a one-two-three inning once in a while from our pitchers would be nice...

Or...why didn't Infante...instead of checking a runner back to a base the runner was literally forced out from anyway...simply get into the base path, and tag the runner out...and then flip to first or just run and make the unassisted double play on his own.

It was literally the stupidest play I've ever seen a major league player try to make in all the major league plays that I've seen.

Fister 5 innings with 73 pitches, 4 runs, 4 hits, 0 earned runs, 4 k's,

Andy Dirks hits over the mountain of a wall in right field,

Tigers lead 5 - 4.
 
I heard on the radio that our defense was suspect tonight. As I turned the radio on right when damn JW tied it up for them.. ..LOL

I take it the errors were stupid..

So far, we've got 2 on prince 1 on Infante and 2 more on Infante that he should have been given an error for
 
Not getting anything at the knees tonight...

Don't know how some of these are not strikes...
 
I remember about a month and a half ago when the guys at MLB Network were all over Plouffe's knob.

"He's a homer machine!" Reynolds was the worst yelling "PLOOOOOUUUUFFE!"

Lost a lot of respect for those guys that day.
 
Dirks' HR off Duensing is his 2nd HR vs. LHP in 2012 and the 4th of his career. Has 63 AB during career LHP.

Since the four runs today are all unearned, Fister's ERA since the All-Star break is now 1.58
