Abreu hits it about 425 feet to CF. 1-0.

I wonder if anyone has ever struck out from every spot in the lineup over a season? Upton has now added a K from the #7 spot in his first attempt.

 

[lonesometiger]

The bottom of this order is so weak so weak. And K ton makes so many out with the strikeout. On track to K 220 times now! Just how many RBI's will the Tigers mess out on ? Man they got to try to move him!

 

[gotime909]

2 out walk by Maybin leads to the tying run when Miggy doubles him in. 1-1

 

[manchild98]

2 great defensive plays by Iggy and McCann strand the runner at 3rd for the Sux.

 

[manchild98]

JD bases loaded walk after falling behind 0-2. 2-1.

 

[manchild98]

Nick rbi single knocked down by the SS. 3-1. Still loaded.

 

[manchild98]

Upton swings 3-0 and doubles. 5-1.

Man, that Quintana should win 20 someday.

Wow Miggy...you chased that 0-2 pitch? Even Inge probably would have only committed to a partial check swing.

Keep Greene in the pen!!!

Keep Greene in the pen!!!

Only been 2 outings, but I'm liking it so far

 

[stonecold2136]

Looks like a good fit for Green. Keep Lowe the hell out of there

 

[gotime909]

13-7 last 20 games. We've got a tough next 2 weeks with TOR at home then @NYY, @CWS and @KC. Going .500 in those games could set us up to make a move up.

McCann's last 6 hits have all come from LHP.

McCann's last 6 hits have all come from LHP.

No surprise there. We've faced 5 lefties starters in that 8 game stretch and Salty caught 2 of the 3 games that we faced RH starters. So he only started vs 1 RH starter.
