There was nothing Colt could do there. He's leading off third and the ball was hit to Machado. He couldn't have been expected to go back to the bag. The only thing I wish he would have done differently is slide way to the left of the plate and slap it with his right hand going by to avoid the easy tag out.
Gillaspie is at the very front of the bullpen with the worst numbers in only four innings of work. This is really a good opportunity to pour it on.
Nice read on the fly ball to RF by Colt to get to third on the tag.
I am back on the Tigers feed and can I just tell you how absolutely pleased I am that I get to listen to Dan Dickerson break down Vásquez's outing and not whatever it is that's being said here?
I lost the Tigers feed on my laptop so I switched to the Padres feed to restart it. I'm tuned in to the radio feed and the analyst is talking and I'm like, "Is that Tony Gwynn Jr? Because that sounds just like Tony Gwynn Sr." And guess what? It is.
I would go that far.
The only reason he was even here is because we had depleted our entire CF depth chart. He might be well advised to seek work in Japan. His talents might play there better.
That's what I was wondering, whether Baez will see a lot a lot more CF. Jace Jung is not coming up to be a DH—that's Colt Keith's job. 😁 So I am guessing he's going to get a lot of reps at third, and probably a few at second.
