Celebrate the Run Parade!
Hardly an original thought here, but that was more like it. Isn't this baseball thing so much more fun when your team scores some runs? (And flexes some muscle, with four home runs.) 13 is, what, a week's worth of offense for the Detroit Tigers these days?
(13 is also the number of strikeouts Justin Verlander had, tying a career-high.)
Any chance the Tigers could bring along Scott Feldman as their personal pitcher, like the batters in the Home Run Derby did? We like that guy! He's exciting.
Full recap tomorrow, when we're a bit more awake and ready to look at the awesomeness that is tonight's boxscore.
Comment of the Night?
Posted just as the game got started, folks:
I want a blowout
We deserve it.
Lots of good ones tonight, though, so we might have a different one in the full recap. Again, when we're more awake. That was a long one. (That's what I said. HAR.)

I forgot it was an Arby's game!
I’ll have to print off that dang boxscore for tomorrow.

Sleepy time for me.
Good win. Many runs. Runs make me happy. :)

Rayburn
Great to see a big win! 2 nights in a row now, Rayburn makes an error that leads to a big inning.
DId anyone else think this...
But when Thames came out early, that he might have been part of a trade? I thought that he came out of the game rather early for a defensive sub.
Watching the recap of the game on MLBN
Honestly did not realize at the time that Curtis’s second homer was a 2-run shot. I lost that detail amidst all the scoring.
And just to emphasize the 13 K, no walk insanity that is Justin Verlander: 115 pitches, 80 strikes.

I have predictive value!
We need the Tigers to trade for Roy Halladay and Alex Rios without giving up Rick Porcello, Casey Crosby or Alex Avilla.
We deserve it.
heehee
Once again, the Comment of the Night goes to a fan’s head, resulting in delusions of grandeur. :)

Hey
I’ve always had this ego. Nothing Ian can do can make it any bigger.
