Things Faster Than Delmon Young.... Dial up internet connections.

Things faster than DY.............a cricket match.

Right. LOL... I hardly post anymore... This whole board is full of us according to you then.... I am damned if i do and damned if I don't... It is one of the reasons i don't post much anymore... When others have an opinion it is ok.. When bob has one he is just bitching and a Monday morning QB.... Except about 85% of this board wants Young gone by next year... Whatever TW...

What does wanting Young or not wanting Young gone have to do with what happened on that play?

That was a great throw, catch and tag....

How many times out of 10 does the defense come up with that play?

Seriously?

And if you think it's 7 out of 10, or 8 out of 10, or 9 out of 10, or 10 out of 10 then please, feel free to answer with that response...

I blame Lamont on that call. Wait, shit, we're not allowed to blame coaches for those mistakes...lol.

Young should have scored... He is just slow... But he was looking the whole way.. So i thought his jump was a tad slow... Good throw I guess and nice try on avoiding the tag.. I wonder if Berry would have made it with his speed?

Considering Young was barely out (the poster who said he was out by a county mile is way off), I'd say yes, he makes it standing up.

Young was out by 2 feet, very close play, without a good throw he's safe.

Lamont was right to send him.

Lamont should have known better. Young has no speed.

 

[biggunsbob]

What a masher!!!!

 

[jas5lf]

Miggy!!

For the record, I would have sent Young for sure. We have the lead. I'll take my chances that they have to make a good throw to get him.

Actually, I wouldn't mind if he was DFA'd mid-game.

Cabrera is fn beast.

This.

Lamont is dumb though...so he gets a pass

 

[tinselwolverine]

Meanwhile, the insurance run occurs anyway...you guys sure do like to argue....

 

[kalinecountry]

Nice an insurance run by Cabrera for Tigers,

Cabrera with 3 hits, 31st double, 101 rbi,

Tigers lead 7 - 4.

I love when Miggy smashes a ball and you hear the home team fans with a loud, collective moan.

Even if Delmon had a good jump I think it was risky for Lamont to send him. Not like the ball just barely beat him. Top of the order has been hot tonight. Would of liked to see what would have happened if they got a chance. Oh well, they're adding on now. Hopefully they can hang on in the bottom of the inning.

Fielder loses an error.

 

[kalinecountry]

one less error is charged to Fielder,

Cabrera with 3 hits, 31st double, 101 rbi,

MVP .....hands down

 

[tigermud]

Young out at home argument, I agree with KC smoky shoulda pinch run the turtle with BB and with that case closed. LOL
