The Boyd we all remember.

Makes a terrible 1-2 pitch that ends up being a double and a Rbi and doesn?t let it go and groves a bomb to make it 3-1 Cleveland to the next batter. Terrible 1-2 pitch to the batter before the homer. When he implodes it?s fast.

but Boyd is a Harris guy.

 

[biggunsbob]

Heading into to work maybe we can get a split hopefully.

 

[biggunsbob]

but Boyd is a Harris guy.

Lol.

 

[byco42]

but Boyd is a Harris guy.

Boyd is a "clubhouse" guy. And the Giants taught him how to pitch better. That "veteran" every winning team needs to win. That guy.

[kalinecountry]

14 hits..one huge one...Tigers have now won 4 straight..

6-6 since the opening series in TB.

Matthew Boyd..pretty solid..8 whiffs on his 4S FB..actually very good..3 whiffs on 26 sliders..not good..1 whiff on the supposedly markedly improved Change up..who we kidding..yet the outing was serviceable.

Englert..very good..Fetter has emphasized what we have learned..don't allow Mason Englert to throw many 4S FB..he only threw 5 in 34 pitches.
