97 is the hardest JV has thrown tonight.

98 the last 2.

 

[jas5lf]

Can't let 'em get 2 back here. Come on Verlander.

Nice! Tex had no chance on that pitch.

Fielder probably could have got 2 on that play if he threw to second first.

 

[johnny2x2x]

How did he lay off the curve? Sick pitch.

 

[johnny2x2x]

Slider to strike him out, wow, that was a great series there.

 

[manchild98]

Sit down Tex.

 

[manchild98]

Does he come back out for the 8th?

 

[tazmac]

Does he come back out for the 8th?

Yes. And plunks Jeter right in the rib and then strikes out the side.

 

[manchild98]

Miggy has to have the farthest average per home run this year. He doesn't hit cheapies.

They were saying on ESPN the Red Sox originally wanted Lamont for manager but the CEO wanted Valentine. How lucky for us.

Sounds like a lose/lose deal to me

 

[gotime909]

Fielder needs to learn to stay home. Verlander tosses Jeter out if Fielder stays on the bag.

Easy, the word on this forum is that Fielder should go after EVERYTHING

 

[manchild98]

Every Tiger has a hit tonight.

Lamont might not have let Youkilis get away though.

Especially to the Sux.

 

[jas5lf]

Imagine that fuckery if Lamont was managing a team.

I like that word.

Lamont managed the White Sox and the Pirates before.

 

[kalinecountry]

Tigers 7th inning,

Dirks grounder back to joba tubby fields it and throws to first,

Cabrera fly deep to left and the f'kn acorn has it right at the fence,

Fielder sinlges to center,

Berry called on strikes,

Tigers lead 7 - 2.

Lamont managed the White Sox and the Pirates before.

Damn, I forgot about that.

I looked it up and he had a .496 win %. Much better than I'd have guessed.
