Game 113 Overflow Thread

PrintZach Miner pitched as well as could probably be expected, considering he had a day's notice. (Maybe he was told to prepare when Armando Galarraga began to feel ill.) But Freddy Dolsi smells like gasoline. Is he really the best pitcher that could've been called up from Toledo?
Oh, and I think we've seen enough of Jason Bay now. This has to be revenge for his oh-fer in the 2005 Home Run Derby at Comerica Park. And Mike Lowell? Is this karmic justice for the beanballs thrown at Kevin Youkilis on Monday and Tuesday?
Red Sox 8, Tigers 1 in the sixth inning. It is unraveling fast.

no one ever told me it was a myth
Damn, I guess I really was faking it all of those times…
Welcome to Detroit>>Where the weak are killed and eaten.
Thank you Dolsi, for removing any shred of dignity the Tigers had in this game

One strike away from getting out of it...
and that happens. Unreal.
Good thing the White Sox don’t play tomorrow. We’re guaranteed one more day alone in first.
Not to be negative, but we look like one awful baseball team right now.
Good thing...
they went out & got that reliever we really needed, knowing that they’re losing Zumya once again, o wait they didn’t….nice. They actually hitting a bit, but the BP can’t hold ’em & keep stranding guys, with extra base hit…wtf.
That wonderful warning track power returns

How is Francisco Liriano one-hitting the Royals?
I thought he was only good against the Tigers
http://tigersamateuranalysis.blogspot.com
I don't know what that is
But he would probably be more effective than Freddy Dolsi

I've missed so much of this game because of my lousy connection tonight.
Although looking at the score, I’m probably better off.
Yes
with a day off in between series.

WTF
8-2 what the hell have I been doing… I missed that.
Welcome to Detroit>>Where the weak are killed and eaten.
Well, I swear someone predicted a 13-2 game in the last thread?
They might get it.

He really needs to stop swinging at the first pitch
he did not used to do that. Trust me. I know

I thought Curtis was going to crash again.
"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle." -- Philo of Alexandria
Maybe I'm just angry....
but is there anyone in the pen that we can bring out to just drill another Sox player?
I’m not handling this series well. At all. Drilling someone again as retribution for taking Miggy out for two games would make me feel better. And of course, that’s paramount.
I’m just kidding. I know Leyland doesn’t operate that way, and any further beanballs would surely result in a vacation for Leyland.
Seriously, the Sox don’t get much of a loss for Youk charging the mound. We lost Miggy for two and two starts for Rick. That’s a lot. The Sox have approximately 17 guys who can play 3rd base and hit balls over their trick wall. Especially off of our pitching staff.
We got hosed. I hope Mr. I lets his ol’ pal Bud know what he thinks.
So why couldn't Ni have come in in the fifth inning?
This would still be a game.

I like Fu-Te Ni very much as a pitcher. :)

If Porcello got susp for 5 then Youk
should have gotten more, he charged the mound and through equipment at Kid Rick, That helmet hit Rick’s thigh.
Welcome to Detroit>>Where the weak are killed and eaten.
Had it hit Rick in the face, it would have broken his jaw...
and ended his season. And Leyland would have killed Youk himself.
Anyone pick up Justin Speier yet?
I’d like him over most of our pen.

He was okay as a long man...
…but when they tried to use him as a lefty specialist, it just didn’t work. I still have visions of Shin Soo Choo hitting an absolute 3-run bomb off him in Cleveland

Rod's talking about Japan.
Since the Porcello thing yesterday, have they run the old tape of Rod charging the mound in Japan?

They've discussed it...
…but they haven’t shown it yet.

Mr. Sunshine
I really like your little “I like Pie” thingy. although I believe it is a euphemism for something else
Welcome to Detroit>>Where the weak are killed and eaten.
maybe not
I also like pie. Liking pie can be quite profound. :)
"Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a great battle." -- Philo of Alexandria
I'm thinking that from you that's a compliment :)
I’ve been called “something else” before and it wasn’t very nice. But he was a douchebooger, so I didn’t care what he thought.

Bit surprised that Brandon Lyon isn't pitching now...
He hasn’t pitched since, like, Sunday.
http://tigersamateuranalysis.blogspot.com
not yet - I think he's day to day
with an “upper body injury,” I’m sure. :)

Loons lose 1-0 to Fort Wayne. :(
Pitching was excellent all over the place – the only run was a solo homer.

I always laugh
When someone gets so wasted they don’t drink their expensive, watered-down beer but splash it around instead. Classic case of someone who really doesn’t have many brain cells left to spare.

Nice guy… throw beer on player, mid-play no less, then let your buddy take the fall/charges.

Yesterday's brawl affected yesterday AND today's game
I’m happy that Rick stood up for himself, and it was ridiculous that he even got ejected AND suspended. It’s just really unfortunate that one sequence has affected 2 games now..
Yeah...
You’d think they would at least play some inspired ball as a result of it… they looked dead tonight.
