I should probably take a few days off and return when I can act like a responsible adult about this, instead of like a spoiled child who’s angry that his birthday party was insufficient. I can get “philosophical“ about all sorts of stuff. This team does not seem to be that sort of stuff for me.

This is becoming unbearable.

That’s not what I meant Jack…

Two runs… Already? I’m starting to feel hopeful… Where’s my three runs?

I’m an American… I’m used to living under austerity.

Well, we got our run for the game. I’m satisfied… See you in a few hours…

First pitch Homer for Kevin

So it’ll rain the whole freaking day, even though this is one of those Apple TV games I could actually watch? A game between two cellar dwelling teams? I guess if anything qualifies as a “must win“ this game could or at least it should be considered a “might win“ sort of game.

If this game goes into extra innings, and the Tigers lose 1–0, I may turn over a car in the parking lot.

I think it might be safe to think that Anderson is now OK. Does this make me the smartest guy in the room?

Jake saves us for being no hit. Now someone needs to save us for being shut out and then our club has to score enough runs to actually win a game.

Getting swept by Cleveland at home may lead me and Tonto to ride off into the sunset. You never know.

No Tork no Jones no Perez in the lineup.

There’s more games against these guys? Tonight and tomorrow?

Watching on gameday the bad calls by umpires become more and more infuriating because there is a solution. I’m not sure how much the complexion of the game would change if balls and strikes were completely taken out of the hands of umpires. If hitting dominated vastly more than we are used to or pitching was favored it would be weird.

If I go AWOL for a while, don’t be surprised. I’ve gone into low ebbs before and then come back.

I’m actually glad I didn’t renew my TV subscription for $140 the day after Skubal went on the DL. I’m not even interested in listening through the radio sub. It’s hard to get excited and hopeful right now.

I actually forgot about this game and didn’t even boycott it. It’s just becoming easier for me to forget without even trying. Even after I posted some stuff in this thread. I got caught up doing other stuff and then started re-watching Blade Runner the Final Cut where a lot of the video is enhanced and cleaned up and they cut all the noir voiceover’s out and I just got lost in the moodiness of it all and then I thought “oh there’s a game…”

I was going to queue up my six runs victory celebration, but not wanting to jinx things I didn’t, but it didn’t make any difference.

And Dingler strikes out game over.

2 outs and it’s all up to Dingler.

Then Kevin singles and there’s runners on first and second one out.
