Game 98: Tigers at Rangers

Ron_swanson_tiny by Ian Casselberry on in News Comment 793 comments

Detroit Tigers at Texas Rangers, Jul 27, 2009 8:05 PM EDT


  Armando Galarraga (5-8, 4.82) vs.   Tommy Hunter (2-1, 2.17), 8:05 p.m. EST

The road, she has been most unkind to these Detroit Tigers recently.  Can this team tame the cruel fates that have befallen away from the comforts of home over the next three games?  Or will the gnarly beast, this road, again lay a smackdown on the men who wear the Old English D?

Tommy Hunter makes his second start for Texas since being called up to replace the injured Matt Harrison.  And that last start was a good one.  Hunter held the Red Sox to one run and four hits over six innings, retiring 10 consecutive batters at one point.  He's 2-1 with a 1.52 ERA in his past four starts.  Not a big strikeout guy, but he's certainly shown a talent for getting hitters out by mixing his pitches well and pounding the strike zone.

Could Armando Galarraga have pitched much better in his last start?  Rediscovering the touch on his slider, Galarraga had nasty stuff against the Mariners, holding them to just one hit over 7.1 innings.  Unfortunately, he didn't get the win in that game because... well, you know why.  The song hasn't changed much.  Galarraga has a 2-0 record and 2.77 ERA against his former team.  In his one start at The Ballpark in Arlington last year, he allowed three runs and six hits over six innings while earning a win.

Lone Star Ball has your SB Nation opposing view for this three-game series.  Win or lose, it's a hoot to check in on what they're saying over there.  (Okay, it's probably more fun when the Rangers lose.)

There have been rumors all week about half their rotation on the block and pretty much everyone at position not named Sizemore. This season is a three way race for the Central and CLE has no hope.

Not sure if anyone has mentioned this yet....

But it seems Alexei Ramirez went after A.J. Pierzynski in the dugout during the Sox/Twins game a few minutes ago. From the sound of things A.J. threw wild into center on a steal attempt (I know, shocking), then blamed Ramirez for the botched play. Let’s just say Alexei didn’t take kindly to that, according to the Sox game thread.

Crap.

Garbage defense and the usual absence of bats. Our one run came on the 2nd pitch of the game. Nothing but LOB since, including two batters blowing a bases-loaded opportunity.

I feel like Maggs goes up to bat like I did in little league lately

just hoping that the pitcher pitches 4 balls at some point. not even trying to hit the ball.
