Game 32 Overflow Thread

Ron_swanson_tiny by Ian Casselberry on Comment 686 comments

Ladies and gentlemen of the BYB Bunch, welcome to a special night.  Since I've been running BYB (since 2007), we've never had enough comments on a game night to warrant an overflow thread.  That seal has now been broken.

Thank you, Dontrelle Willis?

Tigers 9, Twins 7 in the 8th inning.

This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of the Bless You Boys writing staff. However, it does reflect the views of this particular fan, which is as important as anything else written here at BYB.

which Tigers pitcher is slotted for the win right now?

is it Seay

or does Miner scoop up the vulture win

i’d think Seay, right?

Seay I believe . . .

Even though he blew a lead, they had regained it by the time he pitched again.

by TennesseeYooper on May 13, 2009 11:06 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I'd guess

Seay the win, Zumaya the hold right now.

Wanted him to start back on the road.

I think there’s going to be a lot more pressure when he pitches at CoPa. That answers why on the road, why at the dome, dunno.

that second strike Rodney just threw was 3 or 4 inches more outside than several pitches Dontrelle threw which were balls.

Inge pitched in college, he was VCU’s closer… threw 96 MPH and I heard he never warmed up, just came in from 3rd, took the ball and mowed. I bet he’d be the first to pitch if we needed a position player

I don't put TOO much blame on him

how often you think a guy fresh off the bench is a) going to catch up to 100 mph b) even swing at the first pitch? I mean a little more focus on that first pitch still would have been nice

I mean he's to blame

he gave it up didn’t he? I guess I was just saying I wouldn’t hold it against him…for too long. And you’re right, he was due to give up some runs. Really, that was just an unlucky break in a situation where you don’t expect a guy fresh off the bench to swing first pitch and hit a 100+MPH pitch over the fence… tough break
