If you were going to use Montero why didn’t you in the 9th?

Montero gives tigers the 11th inning.

Good point . Why didn’t dummy AJ use Montero in the 9th ?

 

[nydo77]

Rogers was on that fast. Did he have a play at third ?

There wasn't anyone covering third base.......smh.

 

[biggunsbob]

Another crappy at bat by Vierling. In the spot carpenter should be in .
Sees only 1 pitch.
He is a embarrassing mlb player

 

[biggunsbob]

There wasn't anyone covering third base.......smh.

[biggunsbob]

Yes
Walk by Tork ! 3-2
Single by McKinstry 5-2

Then another team plays clown ball for a change ! 6-2
6-2 tigers !

Thank you Keider Montero for bailing me out !
I hate the Yankees ! N

Sweep ! Montero is now 5-5

Feel bad for Melton . He was fantastic.

 

[kalinecountry]

I am shocked they won this game after the twat bullpen blew another lead and cost Melton the win.

Cubs are leading San Diego 23-3 in the 9th.

Tigers recover from 9th-inning collapse to sweep away Yankees
Survive and advance.
That sums up the day for the Tigers on Wednesday, as they somehow got out of Yankee Stadium with a 6-2 win in 11 innings and a series sweep over the free-falling Yankees.
The Tigers scored four times in the 11th after reliever Camilo Doval walked three batters including Spencer Torkelson with the bases loaded. Zack McKinstry then drove a single to right field that ended up clearing the bases.
