Game 118 Afterglow Thread

PrintC'mon - how much fun was that?
This one had a little bit of everything. Good starting pitching. A meltdown by the bullpen. A comeback ignited by Tiger Town's newest hero. Some trickeration to steal a run. (How fast did you go from "No!" to "Yes!" on that play?)
And finally, an epic 12-pitch battle to end the game between Jose Lopez and Fernando Rodney.
Nothing like a comeback win during a pennant race to make a baseball fan feel alive!
Tigers win, 5-3! Enjoy the afterglow.

Still angry at Leyland for not having Grandy bunt...
but I’ll get over it. Huge, huge win. JV tomorrow. All is right with the world for an evening.
I was excited for this game
and in no way did it disappoint.

I've been wondering...
Chone Figgins is a free agent this offseason. He’s been playing 3B for the Angels, but he can play the outfield. I wonder how much he’ll fetch.

See, I'm of the opposite opinion
I can’t stand him largely because he’s a Twin, which means he does a great deal of his damage against us. As a Yankee, he wouldn’t do as much damage to us and would actually be in a position to help us out on most nights, if the Yankees happen to play someone else in the Central or a Wild Card team.

I'm still angry at Leyland for not bunting Grandy with Razor on first, down 1 in the 8th with no outs.
But that’s just a detail. Miggy was clutch and the Chosen One just destroyed a ball.

I just got home from the game.
So entertaining. I contemplated sitting down after 10 pitches of Rodney vs. Lopez.
Was there any second guessing that Lowe’s move was a balk? It seemed like one from the stands. Van Slyke appeared to be arguing for one before the run scored.
I just got home too

It’s a Pudge jersey. I bought it in ‘07. It now holds a place of honor just outside my closet. I also have a Pudge T-shirt, and I’m trying to find a Verlander T-shirt that looks like it (minus the World Series patch on the sleeve, of course), and that is where I fail.
Right now, my main shirt is gray with blue three-quarter sleeves with “Tigers” written across the front and a small Olde English D underneath.

I've been to four Tigers games in my life
I got to see Pudge play ONCE, and it was the first game I went to. In the second game, he was a late scratch with an ankle injury (though we were up in the suites right above the Tigers dugout, so I could see him the whole time). The third game I went to was about ten days after he got traded, and then I went to the game this year.
