As a counterpoint to Torkelson being thrown out at second I asked if Babe Ruth stole many bases AI Overview Yes, Babe Ruth stole a significant number of bases for his era. He is credited with 123 stolen bases over the course of his career. He also stole home 10 times, according to the Society for American Baseball Research (SABR). While not known for being a particularly efficient basestealer (meaning he wasn't always successful at stealing bases), he was an aggressive one. He stole 10 or more bases in a season five times, including in 1930 when he was 35 years old. He even stole second and then third in Game Two of the 1921 World Series.

1-0 on SF

Torque with a single that moves Riley to third.

Riley singles to start the 2nd.

The Cardinals pitcher is a ground ball specialist who gets ground balls 60% of the time, but somehow our first two guys managed to strike out. The wind is blowing out the center and right center today so maybe if we can get some balls aloft and keep the other team from getting balls aloft we might have a good day.

Looks like a beautiful day wow.

Finally.

Still no Tigers specific feed. I guess we won’t see that until the top of the hour.

Either it’s windy in the booth for the pregame show or they always have a fan focused on the woman so her hair is flowing like she’s in a 1980s MTV hairband video.

It’s the duel team fanduel pregame show again. But on mlb.tv you can only reach it through the St. Louis feed. Yes Todd Jones is there. My guess is they can’t afford to have two feeds going at once.

Where are you right now?

This is great for me because it starts in four hours at 11:15 AM for me.

Yes, that’s what I’m looking for.

That’s what I meant because the entertainment value for me is what’s best for the Tigers.

He gets visibly upset and shaken too, at least I think he does. You can ruffle him and get under his skin, which is something other teams have probably noticed if I notice it. The balk really got to him tonight.

Cleveland has lost four games in a row, which makes me very happy, but the Twins are now in second place after winning more games in a row than God should allow. Tomorrow they finish the game that was rained out and play another game that was scheduled previously between the two teams. Do I want one team to sweep the other or do I want them to split? Do I want the emotional gratification of witnessing Cleveland’s humiliation or the strategic gratification of seeing the Twins defeated? Or do I just give up and settle for a split?

So I was going to say that I was hoping that we could get such a big lead tomorrow that they could bring Nido into pitch but he’s gone.

She’s hot enough to be on Fox News. <ducks>

I wonder how the Fanbase of the respective cities likes being pitched betting opportunities the whole damn time?

Sat in an interminably long line at In-N-Out to get a chocolate milkshake during that entire ninth but it was worth it, the game and the shake. Not bad for $3.98.

I was sure we’d win I assumed later we’d lose But we won. Whew!

Boo

Whew. We really do need those darn six runs now. Oh my heck do we need them…
