I get home and sit down at my computer and nobody is posting in a game where our Tigers are winning 10-0 in the 4th?

Through Sunday, the Detroit Tigers are tied for 1st place in the AL with 61 stolen bases. ll part of A. J. Hinch's strategy to put more pressure on the opponent and to take advantage of small openings to help manufacture runs in different ways.

The Tigers have already surpassed the total stolen base records set in previous years. And they have a 79% success rate in stealing.

With Brad Ausmus, stolen bases had to be approved by him in advance. Remember when Rajai Davis was benched for a success SB because he didn't clear it with Brad first? Stealing under Hinch is a team effort. Players get extensive training to help them determine when to run.

Totally Tigers

Totally Tigers

I think a lot of it also has something to do with the makeup of the team. It seems like the teams of the past have been made up of a bunch of slow, unathletic, players that rely on the long ball. This team is made up of more athletic players at almost every position.

Ericson admits to adjusting ventilation system.

The Twins used to adjust the ventilation system against the opposition at the Homer Hanky Dome, perhaps some shenanigans are now being used to barely push Tigers flies to left foul!

The eight runs scored by Detroit in the 4th inning are the most they've scored in an inning since plating nine in the 5th inning on 4/25/2017 vs. Seattle.

 

[tomdalton22]

Tigers pitchers have given up 6 HRs today.

13-12 in the bottom of the 8th

 

[gotime909]

I was hoping Jimenez would figure it out, but sadly it's time to move on

 

[kalinecountry]

Oh Geezus this is f'n ridiculous, except that maybe the bullpen is maxed out from pitching every day. At this rate 20 runs is needed to win a game.

all of these bull pen days and limiting Mize and Skubal are catching up with AJ.

Following the game on my handheld. When I first check in the Tigers were up 10 nothing. Then I checked in five minutes ago and it was 13 to 12. Now it?s 16 to 12. Pretty wild game.
