Tigers vs. royals Game Preview.

Jim Leyland had planned on giving Torii Hunter this game off, which is why Hunter played in both games Friday.
Don Kelly moves up in the order to bat second. He’s 4-for-7 off Wade Davis, so it could be a simple matchups decision. Andy Dirks, 2-for-9 off Davis, sticks in the sixth spot.
Tonight’s game is on MLB Network in some markets, but not many. If you’re in SoCal or Philly, where Dodgers-Phillies is likely blacked out, you’re in luck. Elsewhere, your best bet is either FSD, MLB.TV or the Extra Innings package.
Reminder: Traffic advisory for tonight.
A note on this was already on the site last night, but I wanted to add it to the blog today, too: While the Tigers host the Royals tonight at Comerica Park for a 7:08pm start, Kenny Chesney and other acts will be in concert across the street at Ford Field in an all-day event that begins at 4:30pm. Add the two sellout crowds together and, well, that’s a lot of people driving downtown for the same parking lots.

I'll put some stream links here once they start broadcasting.

Or maybe not, the only link I have found so far is not what it says:

The link is working now.

Donnie Kelly with a 1 out single. Kelly now 5-8 vs Davis.

 

[manchild98]

Moose makes an error at 3rd but because Miggy can't run he's out by 5 feet.

 

[manchild98]

Prince with a long rbi double to the left center gap. 1-0.

 

[manchild98]

VMart with an rbi single past short. 2-0. Nice start. 2 out rbi's.

 

[tigermud]

More runs in the 1st inning tonight than both games combined yesterday

 

[manchild98]

Moose with a swinging bunt, Pena fields it and airmails Prince. Moose standing at 2nd base with no outs.

 

[manchild98]

No damage. Fister with 32 pitches after 2 IP.

 

[manchild98]

Pena batting .444 in August.

 

[manchild98]

Omar singled, wild pitch moved him to 2nd and Pena moves him over to 3rd with a weak grounder to 2nd. 1 out and a man on 3rd for Iggy....drawn in infield....IGGY WITH THE SQUEEZE BUNT. 3-0 and he's safe at 1st.

 

[manchild98]

BTW that was not an easy pitch to bunt. It was on his shoe tops.

 

[johnny2x2x]

Beautiful squeeze play.

 

[manchild98]

Kelly hit the longest foul ball home run I've ever seen down the right field line in Comerica. Kelly walks.

Donny Kelly....someone needed to get the offense back on track.

 

[manchild98]

Gordon with an rbi single. 3-1.

 

[manchild98]

RBI single for Perez. 3-2. Ground balls are finding holes.

 

[jas5lf]

Can we please score 10 runs tonight and beat these annoying shits?

 

[tigermud]

Davis with 75 pitches through 3 much much better at bats tonight than yesterday, only up by 1 though, freakin Getz swings at one at eye level and gets a single to lead off the 4th... These damn royals are royal pains in the ass
