  1. Too too bad, they squandered that two men on and two out thing. Good Lord this game is taking forever comparatively.
  2. In the real world, one of the social workers at my kid’s school is from Detroit and Charlie Gehringer was one of her uncles. For years, her whole family has been honored with box seats on opening day because the Tigers look out for these families of former greats, especially Hall of Famers.
  3. 7-6 Tigers and Minny loses.
  4. 6-6. So it’s like Christmas.
  5. Perez 2-run double.
  6. Ibanez singles.
  7. Well, someone got six runs.
  8. Colt Keith is a young man of focus, commitment, and sheer will. I once saw him hit three home runs in a high school game with a pencil. A ******* pencil.
  9. At least this will make the comeback all the more exciting.
  10. It’s happening again.
  11. The Twins are not going gentle in that good night…
  12. Good first inning for Olsen.
  13. I miss the gauntlet of front row Stepford Wives blondes who used to populate the stands at Kauffman. Perhaps they were retired by their owners.
  14. Reese returns.
  15. I remember dissing him when he came up after being recalled from Toledo with his 5.03 ERA. I think I accused the Tigers of wanting to throw gas on the fire. The guy has started 28 games this year and is at 136.1 innings between AAA and MLB. I think that obviously explains his recent short outing. I haven’t read anything about shutting him down but I don’t read absolutely everything so that means nothing.
  16. There are a lot of must win games for sure to achieve what was once the unlikely milestone of a wild card. Now that I’m buying into “playoff fever“ I would be a little disappointed if we didn’t at least get to the first round of this journey, but the last 30+ games have been such a delight it will be hard to feel too terribly cheated.
  17. I watched the whole thing and it was pretty good.
  18. Ignore the hype, keep your head down, and don't look back. Something might be gaining on you.
  19. Wow! You nailed it. That is realistic and prescient. Only someone who has been around the block with this team a lot could put that together so succinctly. You have earned your stripes today.
  20. Yeah, I like that kind of stuff too. Although I’ll admit, I really partial to having Dan on TV.
  21. I just tried to buy a movie on Apple TV on my actual TV and they won’t let me do it. I don’t know if that’s because I’m going through the firestick or what. But instead of getting on my “device” I simply went to Amazon and bought bought the movie there with no trouble. Apple TV seems to make things harder than other people.
  22. If the Tigers win each of the next four series and I’m allowing them to merely win, not sweep the White Sox in the last series of the season, they will be 85–77 which would be pretty good.
  23. Pick the stick is an excuse to fill up time between commercials when you have nothing better to say. Friday’s game with the Orioles will be on Apple TV. I’ve heard people piss and moan about Apple TV but I’m surprised at how much they know about the Tigers when I’ve watched games there this season.
