  1. Mize with a low pitch count after three innings no runs and 5K’s.
  2. I wondered about that too. It doesn’t seem like moths.
  3. Although I have a knee-jerk disrespect for national broadcasters this Fox team is pretty decent. They seem to have done their homework on the Tigers, and they know some of the major things that the rest of us know about club. I guess that’s setting the bar low but they are at least listenable.
  4. I was complaining about unrelated stuff, but I’m glad Carp hit a homer
  5. I suppose professors in “practical disciplines“ such as business and many other fields may not have the most astute writing ability. But it’s still strikes me as weird. I have a couple friends that are adjunct professors in sociology and philosophy and they’re genuine intellectuals and they would never in a million years let AI “clean up“ their writing.
  6. I never pay attention to the commercials, but the Grammarly commercial where the woman says she’s an adjunct professor and she needs help writing is shocking and dismaying. So nobody - even professors - are not expected to write a cogent sentence?
  7. At least Mize didn’t give up a home run to the first batter.
  8. Torkelson did indeed go with the pitch just to get in a run which was not impossible.
  9. I think the Apple and ESPN definitely don’t do it.
  10. Tork drives in a run.
  11. Greene Ks
  12. Yes, the radio feed is off just enough to be annoying.
  13. I’ve noticed these national broadcasts make the strike zone box almost impossible to see.
  14. I don’t have a problem seeing John Smoltz. And he probably wouldn’t have had the career with the Tigers that he did with the Braves, but seeing him still bothers me because I’m petty and irrational.
  15. Oh geez, the Fox broadcast is on MLB.TV. I didn’t think they do this.
  16. I guess I don’t get to watch this game. My local Fox affiliate is of course showing the Yankees Cardinals because those are two “real teams.“ And granted the Tigers versus the Twins does not showcase two “real teams“ but at least one and on FS1 they’ve got drag racing and on FS2 pickleball!
  17. I don’t think it’s raining right now in Minneapolis. How utterly novel.
  18. The Chevy ad that I’ve been seeing on mlb.tv where the guy at the end of the ad is wearing a Tiger‘s cap is definitely if not in California then more generalized in “The West.“ The terrain is more interesting photographically.
  19. Winning two games in a row against a team we should reasonably expect to handle is not something our club has been able to do for some time. I hope the fact the Tigers are doing this again “means something“ and it’s not just one more point on a graph in the statistical ozone.
  20. In Idaho, I’m getting Chevy truck ads. And one of the guys at the very end of the ad is wearing a Tiger’s cap.
  21. Wow, he was wicked awesome.
  22. All the above average children of families from Lake Wobegon who drove two hours to this game will go home disappointed, but with a life lesson that will only make them stronger.
  23. When he got to three balls and two strikes I was going to post this was a good time for a double play and it happened before I could write it down.
