  1. Gio Urshela homers (3) on a fly ball to left center field. Colt Keith scores. Carson Kelly scores.
  2. Saw numerous Komets games at the Colosseum when I was a kid. And my dad took me to see one of those games where the Pistons came back to town as they did I think once or twice a year for a few years after they moved to Detroit, and we sat directly behind the Celtics bench.
  3. It’s 103° in Boise Idaho and on the asphalt it’s 110° and I have a magnifying glass out and I’m focusing it on a red ant I’ve named Kenta. It’s the way I’ve learned to deal with stress.
  4. If I were a betting man, which I’m not, I wouldn’t bet the farm on the Tigers winning this game, but you never know. Maeda could have a good game.
  5. Two hours and 11 minutes? It’s like a game from the 1960s.
  6. I have lowered my expectations to five runs.
  7. Attendance at these Reds games fell precipitously with each Tigers win: Friday- 40,000 Sat- 31,000 Sun- 25,000 A team that was flying high after sweeping the Yankees in the Bronx was brought to its knees by the Tigers, crying and begging for mercy by the end of this series. “Please don’t hurts us!” they pleaded but to no avail. PHFFT! TIGERS WIN!
  8. This has been a good week for me. Oh wait, let me do this right… sorry… My name is Bert and I’m a Tigers fan… I’m not used to things working out, anyone else familiar with that?
  9. I think I figured this thing out. I think I should change my slogan to “Where’s my five runs?“
  10. I feel sorry for the Cincinnati Reds because they have Candelario as their DH. That would be almost as bad as us having the DH whose BA is .200. Oh, wait…
  11. At least we got our win for the series out-of-the-way quickly so there won’t be any nailbiting over this issue.
  12. Yes. American made. The parts are from China and Canada and it’s assembled in Mexico. Maybe somebody in Detroit designed it. But it’s a tight well functioning vehicle. Handles great. The irony is that if I could’ve afforded the Toyota I wanted it was made in Lafayette, Indiana, probably by children of my old friends from there.
  13. There is no rain on my driveway, but at 5:33 PM eastern time my car said it was 100° and it’s hotter than that now.
  14. According to my Weather app on my iPhone, it’s not raining anymore.
  15. I do think, though, that it’s conceivable that being in a ballpark that makes you feel more confident at the very least makes you a little more chill. But I have no idea really
  16. Hey, I’m enjoying pissing and moaning and feeling bad for myself and then someone shows up with this rationality thing which is something we’re not used to around here lately. Good post though.
  17. Huh, Kreidler almost hit one and then Colt hits one. It’s almost as if this is a team that needs to be in a smaller ballpark to excel.
