Game #44: Boston Red Sox @ Detroit Tigers, Wednesday May 14th, 2025, 6:40 Pm

The Royals and Guardians both lost, so we got a bit more breathing room tonight, though the Twins are nipping at the Royals' heels now.

Skubal has struck out 61 batters and walked two in his last seven starts, covering 43 1/3 innings.

Boston goes home for a three-game series against the Atlanta Braves, who could start Chris Sale on Friday. That would make the Red Sox the first team in MLB history to face both defending Cy Young winners in back-to-back games.

Tigers RHP Jack Flaherty (1-5, 4.61) is expected to start Friday in Toronto.

Why so are the tv people interview someone while a guy is hitting ?
Dumb. Inbetween pitches please.

I agree. I love watching the Tigers on TV. I do not like watching the "Jason Bennetti Show". He and Andy just do not take a breath. Jason loves to see himself on TV and loves to hear himself talk, about whatever. I don't care for the Mystery Guest segment or the interviews in the stands and the split screens when they do that. Dan Dickerson is a pro in the booth. Just like Kell and Harwell. GO TIGERS!

Baddoo called up for Jung. Thought it would be Vierling ?

Me too. I don't want to see the karma that is going on with the Tigers right now being upended, but besides Vierling, there is Meadows and Wenceel Perez waiting to come back up. Then what?

I'm almost positive their contract pays them by the number of words they use. .

THE MAGIC IS BACK

by Holly Horning No one saw this coming. Absolutely no one. It would have been a stretch to predict that Javier Baez would improve somewhat during the 2025 season. But what happened is beyond imagi…

This has been going on for years. When I had the MLB extra innings a number of years ago, many of the teams did this same foolishness especially the AL Central teams.
The worst part was that they did it regularly when the Tigers were batting. Now more of the teams do this. They think we like this non-stop chatter but it is garbage,
