Guess I can watch 20 minutes of this game before I have to leave for the evening. It would be nice to see the Tigers come out of the gate immediately scoring runs.

I guess MLB TV is letting me watch this Fox broadcast while YouTube TV is not, so cool. I’m still trying to figure out how you can watch via of these other services without an extra subscription.

I just realized because this is on FOX I won’t be able to watch it because I live “Out West“ where everybody and I mean everybody on earth simply love love love love love loves the Los Angeles Dodgers. Not. Fortunately, I have a social function tonight that precludes following this game very closely anyway so good luck to you all.

Montero on FOX and it will be kind of cold. I LOVE IT WHEN A PLAN COMES TOGETHER.

They held the Magic to only 19 points in the second half? How is that even possible?

Maybe his hips can start to hurt.

Well, a disappointing game. And a never before 0–5 for Kevin. If Jack could’ve gone six innings and allowed three runs, but that didn’t happen.

Not to belabor the obvious, but it looks like six runs is the magic number if things don’t change.

I think I’ll take a break from this game and go watch the new Slo Mo Guys video on YouTube.

Jack gives up a home run, then walks three batters in a row and Verlander and Scoob are talking in the dugout and Verlander is saying “s***” could be better than this.”

Yeah, it’s not synced up very well today.

Gas Can Flaherty.

I guess offensively the bragging rights for the Tigers in this game is that the Rangers’ pitcher Gore has been “stressed“ to 49 pitches through two innings. Whee! We are really putting stress on him. Phew. Oh my he’s hurting ouch. And Jack gives up a home run… I hope Gore serves up batting practice to us…

I’m distressed that Marcus Semien is no longer with the Texas Rangers, so I can’t make childish remarks about his name.

Jack gave up only one run in the inning so if he goes five innings and gives up only five runs and we get six runs we’ll win - that is if our relievers can hold the powerful, powerful Rangers offense to only five runs.

Jack gives up a lead off single so the tedium of worrying about a no-hitter is off the shelf at least, thank God. And Perez robs a home run from the next batter probably given that the fences have been lowered enough for that to become common place

Wow, the trimmed back, cut rate, Detroit Sportsnet pregame show even at home is only 10 minutes long. Meh, pregame shows are pretty much BS anyway.

I so loved Willie Horton that I named my tiger striped cat - who was allowed to be an outdoor cat because we were like that back then - and when I came home from school one day in probably 1965 I received the sad news that Willie had been hit by a car and had died because he was playing in the fall leaves on Jackson Street in Auburn Indiana. I was heartbroken.

Jack Flaherty is the starting pitcher. Isn’t he “due” for a good game? I mean, just by the law of averages an occasional bounce back to actually be good is statistically possible. In the post game Dan Dickerson was playing up how much Jack likes pitching for the home crowd etc. etc… I would like that.

It’s almost as if a robot that doesn’t give a damn about the excitement of divisional races created the schedule. Almost…

9 of the Tigers last 24 games - all in September - are against National League opponents

I was listening to this game driving up to the mountains in Central Idaho for the day and just when the Tigers had a 3–2 lead in the eighth I thought OMG they’ll bring Kenley out! Then I drove into a kind of ravine where there was no cell phone signal, and when the signal finally came back, it was the last pitch for Finnegan. So I missed two runs being scored in the top of the ninth and all of Finnegan but for the last pitch, and the joy of no Kenley, but dammit it was sweet.

I’m driving up to Donnelly Idaho to open up my friends’s place in the mountains to make sure the winter didn’t destroy anything there. I’m kind of glad that I’ll run out of cell phone towers making radio coverage of the game, impossible so I’ll be forced to contemplate the scenery up there instead. Of course if something good happens I’ll miss it and I hope something good does happen.
