Game Notes

http://www.freep.com/story/sports/mlb/tigers/2016/04/13/detroit-tigers-pittsburgh-pirates/82973530/

There aren't many home-and-home series in baseball, but the Tigers and Pirates have a bit of a history with it. Tonight is the first of two games in Pittsburgh after the teams split a pair in Detroit on Monday and Tuesday. ... Lefty ace Francisco Liriano was scheduled to start for the Pirates today, but he was scratched with an injured hamstring. Vogelsong was the odd man out of the rotation at the end of spring training. He relieved Liriano on Friday, putting him on turn to start today. In two innings of relief, he gave up two runs, one earned.

CF Cameron Maybin went 0-for-4 for Triple-A Toledo on Tuesday. In five rehab games between Toledo and Class A Lakeland, Maybin is hitting .176. He has been sidelined since March 25 with a left wrist fracture.

Sweet. .lol..
 
Pirates first
Jaso shot of the right field wall, ball bounced right to JD held to a single
McCruthen carved up with some very nice sliders and fastballs from Greene
Freese grounder deep at third, throw pulls miggy off 1st and 2nd 1 out
Marte walks on 4 pitches, bases loaded
Greene walks Cervelli on 4 pitches also, 1-0 Pittsburgh
Greene quickly gets ahead of Polanco with strikes, slow grounder to short out at second, safe at first dang it 2-0 Pittsburgh, corners two outs for Harrison
Pitch way inside called strike ump consistent with that terrible inside strike call I guess, liner to left, foul...check swing k

Bleh

2-0 bad guys after 1
 
Going to be a long night with that ump calling that pitch off the right box chalk a strike. Vogelsong with an easy 1-2-3 second

Home plate ump Paul Nauert. He is calling it both ways though, Greene rebounds with 1-2-3 second...Swing the bats tigers

Kinsler with his 3rd Hr, he didn't get to #3 last year till 84 games in. Lol very nice start for him thus far this year
 
Salty with 3 hits.

2 homers with 7 RBI lol

Prior to that was going to post that Nick is hitting righties infinitely better than lefties thus far in the young season. Complete opposite of last season.
 
Greene did a very good job tonight after a rough 1st inning.
