Detroit Tigers at Pittsburgh Pirates, Jun 12, 2009 7:05 PM EDT
Rick Porcello (6-4, 3.98) vs. 
Ian Snell (1-6, 5.54), 7:05 p.m. EST
Welcome to Detroit vs. Pittsburgh Night. Back in Detroit at Joe Louis Arena, the Red Wings and Penguins play a winner-take-all Game 7 for the Stanley Cup championship. Over in the Steel City, the Tigers and Pirates begin the second stage of Interleague Play with a three-game weekend series at PNC Park.
Ian Snell in winless in his past nine appearances, though he pitched well in his last start, giving up three runs and eight hits in six inning vs. the Astros. In his two starts before that, however, Snell allowed 11 runs, 14 hits, and nine walks in 11 innings. This will be the first time he's faced the Tigers in three years. Back in 2006, he gave up four runs and seven hits in five innings at Comerica Park.
After allowing only five runs in the month of May, Rick Porcello has given up seven runs so far in two June starts. But those games were against two of the better teams in the American League, the Red Sox and Angels, which would likely be a tough test for any pitcher, rookie or veteran. On the road this year, Porcello has a 3-2 record and 3.52 ERA. And tonight, he'll get to swing the bat for the first time since high school, where he played shortstop when he wasn't pitching.
Wait until you see who's batting third tonight. Here are your starting lineups:

I wonder how many people in Michigan and Western Pennsylvania
are going to actually be watching this whole game?
World Championship game or interleague game in June…hmmm…..

Wow...
Either the IMMEDIATE vote of confidence was given to Kelly
OR
Leyland didn’t want him and is IMMEDIATELY hanging him out to dry.
by SkylineSeats on Jun 12, 2009 6:41 PM EDT reply actions 0 recs
I love this quote. It's so Leyland
As for the third spot, that belongs to Don Kelly tonight. Leyland said he didn’t really know where to hit him, so he put him in the spot where he would’ve batted Clete Thomas if he were here.
by MackAveKurt on Jun 12, 2009 6:57 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I like Leyland
But this sounds like a HORRIBLE reason to hit a guy like Kelly 3rd.

has been hitting really well for Toledo, extra-base power, not necessarily home run power.

They have been starting late the whole series, so it just prolongs the anticipatory pain.

The Lions shouldn't be used as an example for anything...
Unless it’s the worst thing ever. The Pens have made smart decisions (even trying to sign Hossa for $40 mill or so) and picked up guys like Guerin, held onto Malkin and promoted Bylsma (Grand Haven whooo). Solid organization.

True ...
But that doesn’t make them worthy of excessive praise, and it doesn’t mean that anything should be handed to them. They were annointed a “model organization” for being bad and benefiting from it, and Sidney Crosby was declared the one-and-only “face of the NHL” since before he was drafted, and despite the fact that Malkin is a better player on his team and Ovechkin is far more exciting.
They have been pushed and pushed as the flagship franchise of the league until many other people are sick and tired of them.

Agree on some
For my money, I’d rather watch Ovechkin, partly because he’s toothless and batshit crazy, but also a more exciting player. Malkin is maybe a better board to board player but you how do you seperate a team in rebuilding mode and one that tanks? They’ve tried signing and resigning players and that hasn’t worked. And you know what? They’re back in the SCF and going into the 3rd period with a 2 goal lead. Sick as it makes me to say. Pittsburgh almost moved out of Pittsburgh less than 4 years ago!
