Detroit @ Cleveland G121 - Game 1

[biggunsbob]

Ridiculous he checked his swing. Come on ump.

 

[biggunsbob]

Sigh.
We just can't put ball in play with a runner on 3rd ans less then 2 outs.
First Spencer fails. K's on a pitch a foot off the plate.
Then carpenter fails. Get the damn ball in the air damn it.
Grounds to 2nd Greene out st home.

FRUSTRATING !

Just ridiculous how we fail in these spots.

That is just terrible hitting.

2nd and 3rd no outs tigers fail to score with our best hitters up.
We see so few sac Flys by tigers hitting

 

[Mitchrapp]

Darn.

 

[biggunsbob]

That is one thing we have to improve on next season. We have to be at the bottom of mlb in those
Situations.

 

[biggunsbob]

I just don't get the fascination the Tigers have in Maton. Seems like there are a few guys that deserve a shot in toledo over him.

.173 hitter does not deserve a mlb roster spot.

 

[biggunsbob]

I'm heading out to walk the dog.

So frustrating we don't have more runs.

 

[Mitchrapp]

So close, but just barely out.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Quick 1 2 3. Skubal getting it done.

 

[biggunsbob]

Tigers seem allergic to tack on runs today.

Can we just get a few more please !

 

[Mitchrapp]

Not sure if they score here but don't like the bunt when Baddoo hitting well.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I'd send Holten back for a 3rd inning.

 

[coulomb]

Rogers!

4-1

 

[biggunsbob]

Tigers hold on and win 4-2 !

 

[biggunsbob]

I'd send Holten back for a 3rd inning.

Kid is so good.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Relatively quick game but felt like a snooze fest.
