We just need a few bloops and a blast !

there is your blast

 

[tomdalton22]

I guess. Seems a tad over the top for a team 9.5 games back. But they have been hot since the all star break.

see, now that the Tigers are doing something today, they are singing their praises

Sommers still in ? So stupid . You can change him once inning is over right ?
4 pitch walk to a righty ? Nothing close to 1st batter.,

Come on ump wtf. Back to back strikes missed by this ump.
**** this ump. But AJ is just giving the game away.
I wouldn’t leave Sommers in. >

This Ump missed 2 strikes. And that batter should have K’d for Sommers.
Finnegan in
Witt jr up 4-6-3 dp.
F-7

Nope, can't trust Sommers either. Get him out of there.

 

[nydo77]

Well, the nerves just took over.

 

[tomdalton22]

Sommers looks like he could be a RG for the Lions

 

[nydo77]

Pull him. This isn’t the place for him to air out his nerves.

 

[nydo77]

The ump is compounding the problem; already three strikes turned into balls

The ump is compounding the problem; already three strikes turned into balls

That batter should been punched out 2 times at least.

 

[tomdalton22]

that was a good example of aggressive baserunning paying off!

 

[jas5lf]

All of the breaks going our way now. McKinstry is playing possessed tonight.
