Game 140 Overflow Thread
So are you feeling better about this game than you were an inning ago? Do the Tigers have yet another late-inning comeback in them?
And don't you just hate how far away that right-center field wall is sometimes?
Blue Jays 6, Tigers 4 going into the eighth inning.

Must post a zero...Mr. Lyon.
Then Leyland can use seven consecutive pinch hitters to get us the lead.

Raburn makes up for knocking the ball over the fence earlier

Pitching and defense....
forgot what it looked like. Nice inning! Let’s keep it going!
This is one fighting bunch.
Rally time!
I have no idea what this cake is supposed to be, but it sure looks interesting.

it looks like some kind of motor
With the gears and belt on the side, and it looks like electrical relays or something on the front. That is quite impressive.

also
The Loons are trying to kill me. Won the first game in Midland 7-2, lost the second in Grand Rapids 7-0, and currently tied 2-2 going into the 10th inning. I am now too nervous to listen on the radio.

okay, I lied
I was listening – Loons took a 3-2 lead in the top of the 10th, their closer on with the top of the order up for the Whitecaps.
NOW I’m too nervous to listen. For real.

Come on Tigers, make something good happen baseball-wise for me.

Hope Lyon is back out
foir the 9th … Frasor isn’t automatic closing for them … I think this is his first season of 4 or 5 with an ERA under 4
Nope Rodney

For some reason, I was listening to Cowherd yesterday...
and he said that Jeter was no worse than the third best shortstop ever.
I almost threw up. But only Miner makes me throw up.
I'm trying to get the Monty Python picture up
But the site that has keeps freezing my internet.

We should send him some cheese to go with this.

I think "change piece" needs to be added to the rod allen drinking game
if it’s not in there already it’s definitely worth at least 2 drinks
Now, if this was a save situation...
He would so totally get out of it.

Rodney, do not allow that run to cross.
We can still tie this thing. Not sure if we can win it, but we can get 2 runs.
Has anyone else realized that Ryan Perry is the difference in this game?

Your average Magglio evening lately.
2 for 5. No runs. No rbi. No extra base hits. We’ll take the baserunners, though.
LOONS WIN!!! LOONS WIN!!! LOONS WIN!!!
THEY MOVE INTO THE SECOND ROUND OF THE PLAYOFFS!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
3-2 in 10 innings – next up, Fort Wayne TinCaps with their silly nickname and stupid-looking font and a player named Blake Tekotte who for some reason just scares me (as a player, not a person).
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sorry for the digression
But I was watching the Tigers and listening to the Loons on the radio simultaneously. One game was a lot more exciting than the other as far as I was concerned. :)

and not squander so many good opportunities

insult to injury
I’m also watching Jurrjens throw a shutout vs the Cardinals right now. 1-0 in the top of the 9th. He looks filthy
hated losing Jurrjens at the time
And my hate has not dimmed at all. Still don’t like it and still cheer for him.
"For myself I am an optimist - it does not seem to be much use being anything else." -- Winston S. Churchill
Yeah I'm right there with you..
although he wouldn’t be this good in the AL, he’d still be better than Gags/Nate.
by Detroit4lyfe on Sep 11, 2009 10:35 PM EDT up reply actions
I'm not so sure
He was starting to get hit pretty hard in his final couple starts with the Tigers. He probably would be better than Nate, on par with Armando

As someone pointed out a while ago though...
…had he not been traded to Atlanta, he probably would’ve been sent to Florida in the Cabrera trade.

We would have lost him anyway in the Cabrera and Jitters deal later that offseason, so that makes it a little easier to live with

Perry once again gives up what amounts to be the difference between a chance and a loss
While the K Kings Inge and Granderson go 0-6 with only 1 strikeout between them tonight. At least Leyland moved Grandy down in the lineup against a starting lefty, Rayburn performed nicely in that role this evening.

Inge walked twice, though
