Tigers @ Athletics Game 154 September 22 2023

[biggunsbob]

We shouldn't be? 28th BA, 29th Runs. No one is .500 with that kind of offense.

Verses the A?s the should be. Hell we are good against every division but the East and national league. We should beat the A?s.
But we don?t.

 

[biggunsbob]

Homer came against Holton. Very unusual got him.

 

[biggunsbob]

Oakland has winning records over

Atlanta 2-1
Kansas City 4-2
Milwaukee 3-0
Chicago white Sox 4-2

So I guess being 3-2 after tonight is possible. Just frustrating.

Milwaukee sure wants those games back lol.

Might as well just skip the season just mark the wins vs Oakland's and KC and losses vs Texas, and Baltimore etc..

Twins win. Clinch division. Thanks Chris for another crappy under .500 baseball team.

 

[Mitchrapp]

One thing I learned, bad teams win some games and good teams lose some games.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Tigers are bad at letting third strike go by ..

I really don?t understand what you are asking me ? I know the tigers are bad. They are not Oakland bad over 162 games . I feel we should have a winning record verses Oakland. We Just struggle verses some teams I guess recently.

Sadly we have a crappy owner ! This rebuild was over last year ! Lol.

Same reason we're .500 vs the Astros, and Mariners - Its baseball.

Double A Erie Seawolves start Championship series Sunday . They have home field. Best of three games . First game on the road. Last two are at Erie if it goes three games.

Why the Oakland A's Miguel Cabrera retirement gift is causing such backlash.
Oakland A's retirement gift to Cabrera pales in comparison to nearly all others for 2-time MVP.
