Game 66: Tigers at Cardinals

Detroit Tigers at St. Louis Cardinals, Jun 18, 2009 8:15 PM EDT


  Rick Porcello (7-4, 3.71) vs.   Joel Pineiro (5-7, 3.99), 8:15 p.m. EST

Can the Tigers salvage a win in this series finale with the Cardinals, and head back to Detroit on a semblance of a good note?  Or will they be nursing a five-game losing streak when they return to Comerica Park?  It's going to be a hot night in St. Louis.

Rick Porcello ended a personal two-game winless streak by holding the Pirates to one run and six hits over seven innings.  But perhaps more importantly for a struggling Tigers offense, Porcello might also bring a strong bat into the lineup.  He was a dual threat last Friday, batting 2-for-3 and driving in two of Detroit's three runs in the game.  Maybe he can push the Tigers toward four runs tonight!

Joel Pineiro has lost his past four starts,despite giving up 13 runs in 22.1 innings.  He's been victimized by the Cards' poor offense, which averaged 2.25 runs in those four games.  Pineiro hasn't faced the Tigers in his three seasons with St. Louis, but over his career, he has a 6-1 record and 2.25 ERA in 10 appearances (eight starts).

Magglio Ordonez is out of the lineup tonight, and perhaps longer, as Jim Leyland announced Ordonez would be benched "indefinitely."  Ryan Raburn will take his place in right field this evening.

I would like to know

which mascot we will be using tonight, if need be.

Your options are:

  • Rally Squirrel
  • Rally Joes or
  • Rally Mothman

by Kmann on Jun 18, 2009 7:20 PM EDT reply actions   0 recs

I vote rally joes

they seemed to make an actual difference. The squirrel should be banned, nothing good has happened since it showed up, no matter the direction it points!

oooohh

Rally Mothman….I’ve never seen that.

You may have to wait a bit

He may appear at some point, however, I do agree that the Rally Joes would be good tonight.

How about this for an idea, Detroit?

THAT WE DON’T NEED A DAMN RALLY THINGY MADGIGGY OF ANY FREAKING SORT, BECAUSE WE KICK THERE ASSES ALL OVER THE FIELD FROM THE FIRST INNING ON.

How about that. I feel better now.

if we had a rally rep on Sunday the thread wouldn’t have gotten down to the index line – in boredom.

Maggs

That means he was called into the office and probably had to speak with Leland and maybe Dombrowski or Lloyd. People are making jokes about him. It’s sad because he’s given us so many memorable moments. Sure hope he can recover.

Agreed

It’s sad that it’s had to come down to this. There are actually guys struggling worse than him (Jimmy Rollins, David Ortiz until the last week or so), but I’m hoping he gets things figured out because I like him and I hate seeing so many Tigers fans calling for his head.

Also bonus, it seems to only be 15 – 20 seconds behind the game, vs mlb.tv which sometimes feels like you’re watching last week’s game.

But winning – yippee!

Loons kicked butt tonight too (6-1) and now are on an eight-game winning streak.

I must prefer winning baseball. :)

by Tagne13 on Jun 18, 2009 10:54 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

he got fired by SVSU after 07 season

he’s the NMU defensive coordinator now. His friend and fellow yooper hired him.

There was a slight scandal involving his sons, scholarships and tuition/room and board. I think the AD fired him because the personalities clashed but I can’t say for sure.

Oh I know ALL about it

he tried to sue the school too

by Tagne13 on Jun 18, 2009 10:58 PM EDT up reply actions   0 recs

I think he was fired without cause myself

but like I said, all I know is from reading the media reports. He declined to talk about the entire thing up here.

There was a family in wyandotte that astroturfed their front lawn

He owned the local sporting goods store and it was a big publicity thing when astroturf was introduced. They didn’t mow, but she’d be out vacuuming every morning.
