Now it’s 4–2 twins they just scored a run on an infield single. Still two out.

The twins right now an inning later are threatening in the 7th, with runners on second and third and two outs down three runs.

I turned on the Marlins Twins game and initially it was on the Twins feed and their announcers, bless their soul, were so excited because they had a runner on first with no outs. HA! It didn’t matter.

I hope these really bad umpires aren’t promoted to the postseason. I don’t know if they do it on the basis of seniority or what, but having postseason games decided by an umpire who calls a ball 1 foot out of the strike zone a strike is just intolerable.

When Daniella Bruce asked Malloy if he was worried about Verling being able to score from third he basically said “no not with Joey Cora at third base.”

You are welcome.

I hope this initial setback makes the stirring come from behind victory all the more tantalizing.

This ump is blind that called strike was a full foot above the strike zone.

I kind of like Parker Meadows leading off. Is Hinch hoping that he’ll get a double and Ibanez or Perez will knock him in?

I remember it too well. Something worth recalling as a warning for sure. The 2006 Tigers, though, were stumbling for much of the last 1/3 of the season. Even though the end of that season was humbling, this club is still ascending. And we now have a more mature version of Nuke LaLoosh. The 2024 Tigers are a tidal wave minutely focused on single games that are like tiny islands in the South Pacific. We bat a 6’ 5” power hitter leadoff. New rules, new ways of managing. If how things “feel” makes a difference this situation feels different.

GO TIGERS! I love my Tigers letter jacket. I wish I could wear it tomorrow to show off, but it was 94° in Boise Idaho today and tomorrow morning, when I go for a walk, it’ll just be too darn hot. This picture is from mid-April two years ago. Winter extends late in Idaho, and summer does as well. GO TIGERS!! This is great!

Yeah, I noticed that was pretty cool.

Zach McKinstry singles on a ground ball to left fielder Christopher Morel. Spencer Torkelson doubles (21) on a ground ball to left fielder Christopher Morel. Zach McKinstry scores.

Jobe in the pen warming up.

I sure am glad we have Tyler Holton.

Tork bomb

That’s a tough name to go through childhood with.

Wenceel with a leadoff walk.

More runs would be really, really nice.

According to the graphic on TV Holton on two days rest has pitched 25 innings and allowed absolutely zero earned runs. Of course, this doesn’t count runners already in scoring position I presume.
