PrintDetroit Tigers at Oakland Athletics, Jun 29, 2009 10:05 PM EDT
Rick Porcello (8-4, 3.55) vs. 
Brett Anderson (3-7, 5.74), 10:05 p.m. EST
The Tigers have lost six of their last nine road games, but that was during Interleague Play. Enough of the National League. Bring back the American League! And Detroit might be bumping into just the right team as they resume their AL schedule. The Athletics welcome the Tigers into Oakland nursing a five-game losing streak.
For those A's, Brett Anderson is pitching tonight after being pushed back from Friday to rest a tired arm. He's winless in his past three starts. And in those 14.2 innings, he's given up 14 runs and 23 hits. Anderson faced the Tigers when the A's visited Detroit in mid-May, and gave up nine runs in 3.1 innings. Only three of those runs were earned, however, as every Oakland infielder ended up committing an error. In five starts at home, Anderson is 1-4 with a 5.52 ERA.
Rick Porcello took just his second no-decision of the season in his last start. Despite allowing seven hits and a season-high four walks in his five innings, a struggling Chicago Cubs offense could only score two runs against him. That gave the Tigers the opportunity to win the game in the later innings. Porcello has thrown 97 pitches in his past two outings, which makes you wonder if he might be watched a bit more closely tonight. The rookie has been impressive on the road, compiling a 5-2 record and 3.02 ERA in seven starts.

It's not necessarily the time that gets me...
It’s the weird things that seem to happen on the west coast.

Alright, everyone be honest
Who is staying up for the entire game? (I will not be)
I root for the Tigers, Pistons, Red Wings and yes, the Lions.

I'll do my best
I’m actually wide awake right now, as I wrestled a new lawnmower out of my trunk, plugged it in to charge, went to Home Depot to get an outdoor extension cord for my trimmer, and then did my grocery shopping.
But who knows what state I will be in after another 90 minutes or so.

I always appreciate Beck, but never more than when he’s not covering a series. Pre-game coverage is like driving a car at night without headlights.

I find it hard to feel bad for the Indians
because I loathe them so much.
Welcome to Detroit>>Where the weak are killed and eaten.
I like when division rivals lose, obviously.
But I still feel bad for the fans who have to witness such disastrous baseball like we did last year.

So...it's basically business as usual for the Indians' bullpen
I’ve had the game on while waiting for our game to start, and while I seriously dislike the Indians, the White Sox ARE closer to us in the standings.

I am not partial
I loathe the Sox equally. Along with the Twins and the Royals

I'm wary of all teams in our division...
..but the two teams I really dislike are the Indians and Red Sox.

After the last two series, Zumaya has turned into the new Lyon for me...
I could care less about his 104 mph fb… If he doesn’t get rid of that change up, then I am not a fan.
Until Zumaya can throw the ball across the plate,
Lyon seems like the default choice.

I always feel like these west coast games are on a totally different planet.
I just feel so far removed when its pitch black outside here, and the sun is still bright there.
It's black in the LP
But we’ve also had thunderstorms this evening, so the clouds contribute to that.
"A vacuum is a hell of a lot better than some of the stuff that nature replaces it with." -- Tennessee Williams
I think we all agree it’s imperative that they trade for a true closer. Then then can push Rodney and Zumaya back an inning
Would rather have a GOOD left-handed bat than a closer

I think "imperitive" is too strong
Rodney is 17/17. I know it’s sickening to watch, but it works. I don’t know that anyone better is available.
I agree in theory...
but there are only maybe 6 true closers in all of baseball. None are getting traded.
benjamin franklin's theory stinks tonight
if it weren’t for him, this game would start at 7 pm and I could watch all of it

fake throw by G$ to get the runner stealing second
tricked the guy at 3 to run for home and look like an idiot.
Laird faked a throw to second on the steal, Suzuki was caught too far from third in a rundown, probably trying to steal home, yeah
by Kurt Mensching on Jun 29, 2009 10:40 PM EDT up reply actions
Okay, so Laird has the ball, right, and then he went to the dugout, however, unfortunately, the inning wasn’t over and they called a technical foul on us and Laird got a red card.
How about that?
I don’t get the soccer stuff. That’s why I wondered why they called it stoppage time when I could see the clock still running.

it is very rough for many, sad to see UM raise tuition in the face of it

Maybe someday this state will heal
but until then, I’ll stick with slightly less expensive schooling.
makes sense
I’ve seen people get a good education at inexpensive schools and shitty educations at very expensive prestigious schools. Bottom line is if a student goes out drinking five nights a week and does all the work half-assed, their degree won’t be worth anything – and if they apply themselves, work hard, and study more than party, no matter what school they go to they will have a better education.
College students get out of their education based on what they put into it, pretty much.
