P: Trevor May

Trevor May has made three Major League appearances, two of them starts. He has allowed 10 runs, nine earned, on 13 hits over nine total innings with 13 walks and three strikeouts. In theory, it would take a lot of Twins hitting off Justin Verlander to put the Tigers out of this one. The way this weekend has gone for them, though, nothing is assured. And May did pitch eight shutout innings against Toledo in May.

I want the heads of ....Manny Crespo, Tom Moore, Dan Lunetta, Dave Owen, David Chadd, Scott Pleis, and Scott Bream.....on sticks.
 
Oh shit, there's a game 2?

I'm thinking 13-5, the bad guys.
 
Go tigers!!!! On a boat near charlviox...can't get pictures to work...go jv!!!!!!
 
Betcha JV allows 2 runs in 7IP and we lose 2-1. Its the only outcome I expect from this team right now.
 
Wow...this Minnesota pitcher really sucks.

A 9.0 ERA.

Possibly a Tiger hitter will be able to make a base hit this game.
 
Who are these guys masquarading around in Tigers uniforms?

Verlander, Jeff Jones, Ausmus all went down steps to clubhouse after conversation in dugout between innings.
Head athletic trainer Kevin Rand did not head to clubhouse with them. So it might be just looking at video to figure out what's the issue.

Gratz to all of you that said DD sucks. I was wrong. You all were right. This team blows lol.
 
Ausmus is getting canned this year. The only way DD can take the heat off himself
 
Tigers get a break there, Suarez with a soft liner into shallow center and throw home hits the pitchers mound Holaday scores after Nick,
Tigers lead 5 - 4, until the great bullpen gets in there.

Well the inning still isn't over for the Tigers.

If the Tigers score 100 more runs, there's a chance that they could win this game 105-104.

Justin looks like the hair around his scalp is thinning a little bit...

Hope Kate doesn't hold that against him.

Maybe he should just go full on cue ball, like Michael Jordan.
