Game 123 Overflow Thread

So this is how the Tigers want to play in the one game of this series that more people were likely to watch? Did the west coast time change finally catch up with these guys?
Jack Cust, however, seems plenty comfortable with how things are going today.
Oakland has a 5-2 lead over Detroit, heading into the bottom of the seventh inning. How many more aardvark images can the BYB Bunch find to stoke a rally?
This is a FanPost and does not necessarily reflect the views of the Bless You Boys writing staff. However, it does reflect the views of this particular fan, which is as important as anything else written here at BYB.

So is Scott Mitchell a former Lions quarterback?
The only Lions I know are Barry Sanders and Jason Hanson (I’m very much not a football fan).

Hey, I'm the person who wants every pitch and swing analyzed to death (though not in a sabermetric or mathematical fashion)...
But I did say at the beginning of the year that the Tigers had the ability to be good. The pitching and defense has lived up to that (though not today), but the offense hasn’t really.

Yeah
If you want to look at it from a Saber perspective, it’s because these Tigers are actually really good at preventing runs, especially via the groundball out.

Really? More awful than the Washington Nationals? The Pittsburgh Pirates?
by Ian Casselberry on Aug 23, 2009 6:15 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I didn’t say the most awful and my post was mostly out of frustration, but the Nationals and Pirates probably have more guys who know their role on a daily basis. Outside of Miguel, who is constantly at 1B, batting 3rd or 4th, it seems everyone else is getting mixed and matched on a day-by-day basis. No one can mentally transition from game to game because they don’t know whether they’ll be in the lineup or not. Starting September 1st (or earlier), JL needs to pick the lineup he thinks can give Detroit the best chance to win every night and roll with it everyday. I feel like he’s becoming too much like Trammell playing numbers and averages and situations.

From what I have seen (Death Proof, Pulp Fiction, Inglorious Basterds) I’ve got to say that it’s Inglorious Basterds followed closely by Pulp Fiction with Death Proof pulling up the rear. Of course, I really want to see Kill Bill, but I want to take the time to watch the two movies together.

So we just need a 6-run ninth, not outside the realm of possibility

Yeah, cuz an offense should have no problem scoring 10 runs a game

Is there a postgame show today?
I’d be interested in Leyland’s response after this one

not even poop sandwiches?
I can’t give Arby’s any sandwiches – I’m all out of roast beef. I could give them grilled cheese, though.

I know everyone's complaining about the offense...

for sure
Weren’t we complaining about that, too? I thought we were pointing out how lousy the pitching was earlier. I’d hate to have any of the Tigers feel left out.
