Game #89: Detroit Tigers @ Cleveland Guardians, Friday July 4th, 2025, 7:10 Pm

Shoot. Cleveland pitcher back to mowing us down since Mckinstry homer.

 

[biggunsbob]

Come on ump. That was a strike to Kwan. Please we need the challenge system. He should be out.

Instead Keith double clutch to a damn single. God we need a 3rd basemen who understands who is running. Maybe no one gets him but that double clutch cost Olson a chance to finish the half inning maybe?

 

[@Stakesarehigh]

Should have let him finish

 

[biggunsbob]

Holton in to pitch ro Ramierz and in cue can't get him out.
Some things never change.

That ump missing that strike is just baffling. It was right down the middle and he offered a bunt and never pulled it back.
Holton gets someone ..inning over !

 

[biggunsbob]

We can't get any close strikes from this ump at all.
Holton mows them down in the 6th.

 

[biggunsbob]

Just cant get anything going. Keith bounces into a dp.
Torres 2 out walk. Perez flys out . Lotsa Lobs.

 

[biggunsbob]

Holton clean 7th !

 

[biggunsbob]

Tigers do nothing in the damn 8th.

 

[biggunsbob]

Jones (0-2).count wtf just terrible ****ing pitching by Tommy !
Vest in
PH -Fry 3-0, 3-1 count., 3-2 count,foul, foul BB
Stevens 4-3 inning over !

My god we never use the damn count at all.
That pitch was right over the outside edge.
He so did that batter a favor. So dumb .
He had sung right over 2 low pitches to get a 0-2 count.
Dumb, dumb ,dumb

 

[biggunsbob]

Hey hitters . We need insurance runs.

My poor dog is petrified of these fireworks.

We have to drive nowhere for fireworks. I kid you not we have 3-5 different sets of fireworks surrounding our house and Neighborhood.
Some in the neighborhood some right out. It’s crazy.
It’s Been going on for over a hour plus.

Every phase of Parker Meadows career, his hitting issues were about being late. Every adjustment has been about how to be on time. We are there again. He has figured it out twice before, but he needs to figure it out now.

A.J. Hinch: "Lange is right in the middle of spring training, in terms of putting it in perspective. He needs to pitch a little bit more often ... He’s reported that he’s feeling better every time out, which is key. The big key is to get him in the strike zone a little bit more."
