GAME 100 - Detroit Tigers @ Chicago Cubs, Monday, July 20, 2026, 8:05 PM

[kalinecountry]

Another game where the bullpen is taking a colossal dump.

 

[biggunsbob]

Three closers at the beginning of the season; now we can't even put the two remaining ones in and expect to win.

We just have to be tipping pitches some how. So frustrating we do not use the off speed pitch like other teams do against us.
Kyle throws back to back four seams fastballs at 96. 1st one inside and second one right down the middle.

So many blown games. all on Harris and his roster construction

 

[biggunsbob]

this Jackass has to be shelved.

 

[JScottWriter]

Can’t believe he got out of that.

 

[nydo77]

Can’t believe he got out of that.

Unless we have a sudden eruption of offense this inning, it probably doesn't matter.

Lee (runner)
Greene. (Infield single)
Dingler (infield single) 6-5 Tigers
Carpenter E-4. (pinch runner Malgeri) Kerry limping
Tork Singles !! 8-5 Tigers ! Finally with sacks full !
McKinstry (0-2). K’s looking . Another bad at bat. With runner on 3rd.
Worthless 3-0, 3-1,3-2, K’s swinging My god so bad.
Kevin bb ( intentionally)
Vierling 5 unassisted


Why is McKinstry and outman on this team ? Runner on third and zero and one out and neither put ball in play ?

Why not bunt McKinstry or outman ? Just to get that run in ?
Our pen needs all the runs it can get.


Cubs 10th
Holton in
Bregman runner scores (8-6)
Happ F-8
Hoerner singles
Ramirez Fc 5-4
Swanson singles
PH-Kelly. 5-3

Tigers win 8-6 Final. My heart can’t take this team.
Glad Jansen got out of the jam.

So glad because Dingler deserves this win.
4-5 with 2 homers 3 RBIs,3 runs .


I hate McKinstry and Outman.
I hate this bullpen.

Vierling runner
Greene. (Infield single)

Lee is the runner.

 

[nydo77]

The bottom of the lineup strikes again......

 

[nydo77]

That was an incredible amount of luck.

 

[biggunsbob]

Both teams
10 Lob’s

We had at least 3-5 at bats with a runner on 3rd and either zero or 1 out. I do not understand why it’s so hard to put the ball in play.

The bottom of the lineup strikes again......

McKinstry is becoming as bad as Outman and rogers .

ZM 0-5. Now batting .191
Worthless was 0-5. He is Now batting .153.

There is plenty of guys at Toledo and Erie that are better then .
Outman
Rogers
McKinstry
Vierling

I heard in the radio this morning that Baez may be back soon. Looks like….Kerry may be gone for a bit. He was limp in on the 10th

Crazy luck to even get to the tenth. Bases loaded for Jansen ans he fell behind Bregman 3-0 . Got out of the jam.

too many swing and misses

 

[biggunsbob]

Tork did get a big hit in the 10th but. Bottom of the order was bad tonight.

Carpenter 0-5
Tork 1-5. Single 2 RBIs
McKinstry 0-5
Outman 0-5

 

[biggunsbob]

Dingler Pickoff of Suzuki at 2B was pretty cool.

 

[biggunsbob]

I guess Kerry just has a heel bruise from a few days ago.
AJ just wanted a faster runner on 1st.
So looks like he is ok

 

[kalinecountry]

Tigers surprisingly activate Gleyber Torres vs Cubs and option feel-good story

Bases loaded, 9th inning, tie game. What better way for Jansen to finally top his nemesis.
