Tigers lead 5 - 0,

Prince flys deep to left,

Young grounds out,

williams with 78 pitches,

Tigers lead 5 - 0.

Eff you, Trout.

 

[kalinecountry]

With that 400 foot homerun, Cabrera now has 298 for his career, just needs 2 more for becoming the second Venezuelan born player with 300 or more, andres galarraga 399.

 

[kalinecountry]

Scherzer 89 pitches, brown eye max 4 walks, Blue eye Max 1 run 2 hits 7 k's.

Cabby should blow that number out of the water with ease...

 

[packersfantheo]

Pull max now.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Pull max now.

You're kidding, right?

 

[packersfantheo]

You're kidding, right?

I wasn't. But I was wrong.

 

[kalinecountry]

callaspo doubles,

Max starting to run out of steam 7th inning? 100 pitches now,

little shyt izturis flys deep to center runner tags up to third,

bourjos 2 strikes another slider low please, swings and misses a 98 right at the knees,

8 k's and 104 pitches with 2 outs,

pinch hitter calhoun 2 and 2, fastball strike three called at the knees,

Blue eye Max responds beautifully, 7 innings 109 pitches 1 run 3 hits 4 walks 9 strikeouts,

Tigers lead 5 - 1.

 

[cmlfactor]

Yeah 99mph after 100+ pitches they should definitely pull him.

 

[Thumb]

Good 7 innings by Max, when he got into trouble, he pitched out of it well.

 

[kalinecountry]

Cabby should blow that number out of the water with ease...

Good chance at 600 homeruns? also his doubles were figured out to be around 700 if he plays another 10 years for a 20 year career.

 

[kalinecountry]

Scherzer's 19th career game of 9+ strikeouts, and 7th this season.

 

[packersfantheo]

Yeah 99mph after 100+ pitches they should definitely pull him.

After a couple of walks and a leadoff double I get a little nervous.

 

[Mitchrapp]

I wasn't. But I was wrong.

He's dynamite today. You don't take him out when he's dealing. And not because a guy doubled.

 

[jmakula87]

It would be crazy if Miggy got up to 700. It is so hard to keep up production late into the career, but it would be awesome if he did! Maybe we can score a couple more this inning to give me complete peace before I head off to work.

600 is for sure within reach. Playing in Comerica might make it a little bit tougher, that is of course if he finishes his career here...which I'm sure we're all hoping for. 700 doubles should be the easier number with CoPa being a doubles/triples park...

 

[Thumb]

Table is set, let eat big this inning.

 

[Mitchrapp]

600 home runs is like 30 for the next 10. He averages more than 30 a year but as he gets older it will be harder unless he becomes a pure power hitter and get 40-45 for the foreseeable future. Which I doubt. I suspect 560 HR and 650 Doubles? And both would be awesome.

Those numbers would be great as well. I kind of think he falls short of 600 maybe around Frank Robinson total, anything close to 700 or over 650 doubles is just amazing.
