Horrible first inning for JV..

Horrible first inning for JV..

No runs. Pitch counts for JV is pointless. It really just depends how he feels.

Horrible first inning for JV..

Not sure if that was tongue in cheek or not, but it's kind of funny that an inning where JV gives up no runs is considered a bad inning for him.

Horrible first inning for JV..

nice when you can be that bad and still not let up any runs though.

 

[tigers99888]

Miggy with a HR finally!!!

 

[dpinsea]

Atta boy Miggy!

 

[mikem2780]

He is a sick man when he's doing that. Not too many other guys in baseball can do that.

 

[manchild98]

Anyone else surprised Miggy named his newborn son Christopher Alexander? I would have guessed it would have been much more of a Latin name.

Miggy jacks a homer and Blyleven says...this big donkey right here....LOL.

 

[mhughes0021]

And we now have enough runs for a JV W!

 

[manchild98]

Avila homers!!! On Fire in August.

 

[tigers99888]

Another jack for Avila!!!! 2-0!!!

[dpinsea]

I think this Avila kid might be good one day.

If Alex was a character in He-Man Masters of the Universe, he'd for sure be Beastman.

Horrible first inning for JV..

Everyone was saying this during his last start when he had a 30 pitch 1st.

He still went 7 easy, and could have gone 8.

 

[tigers99888]

Betemit is such a liability on defense..

 

[spockmaster]

justin seems to be a little short on fastball control today.

 

[tigers99888]

JV needs to throw more strikes!!

 

[spockmaster]

what the hell? if his fastball is close to a strike, they foul it. when did they get such good plate discipline?
