  1. DETwin probability:100.0%(37.2)
  2. It would be too tedious to check box scores, but I have a feeling there aren’t many clubs where the 7,8, and 9 hitters in the batting order are sub .200 hitters. Jeez.
  3. If this keeps up the attendance figures in September are going to be really bad once kids go back to school and there’s fewer families coming to games. It’s a real shame. There’s been a lot of bad luck in terms of injuries and under performance. Hinch can only play the guys he’s got and it’s not like there’s major league ready guys that he’s holding back out of spite. They have given us some really good times this year, surprisingly good times. I don’t think there are many more of those times in the offing. They may have a few more 10 run blowouts in the tank. I don’t know. I don’t think this is something you can coach yourself out of and turn coal into diamonds very quickly.
  4. I wish my mom hadn’t got rid of my stamp collection 47 years ago because right now if I had it that would be more fulfilling to engage with than this game.
  5. And that can work both ways unfortunately I guess we’ll just see
  6. Knock on wood, the game is still close so anything could happen.
  7. The wrong Perez homers.
  8. To go old-school for a moment, Malloy “looks like a baseball player.“
  9. That felt and sounded like a Homer.
  10. Skubal dealing in the 1st.
  11. That lineup tonight is not exactly “murderers row.“ These last two months are not for the weak of heart. That said, it’s still really really bugs me that the Kansas City Royals, who are truly a small market team and not a small market team by fiat of ownership, can field a more successful club than we can (regardless of how much this is a attributable to them committing genocide against the White Sox this year).
  12. I get sentimental and wistful about the “early days“ of MLB.TV when they didn’t have much advertising and had to run the same two ED commercials over and over again.
  13. Unfortunately, I won’t be doing this anymore. The app I have used for 7 or 8 years jumped from $30 a year to $80 a year with no real upgrades and aside from that pissing me off, I think the several hours a day I spend fiddling around with images could be better spent.
  14. The Tigers have been on Apple TV a surprising number of times this season. After all, we’re small market team with a tiny payroll thanks to the Illich children who have destroyed what their father bequeathed them. We finally really did it. [falls to his knees screaming] YOU MANIACS! YOU BLEW IT UP! AH, DAMN YOU! GOD DAMN YOU ALL TO HELL!! "
  15. Will Smith slapped us around pretty good in the bottom of the 8th <rim shot>
  16. Guess who’s back? back again Tork is back, Tell a friend… … In Toledo…
  17. Well, I stopped paying attention so it’s that “Schrodinger’s cat” thing where something unpredictable occurs while I’m not looking.
  18. We are being no hit. We may be witnessing a “historic” game.
  19. At least the no-hitter suspense is over quickly.
  20. In the last four years — and I’m not counting 2020 — Trout has played in 36, 119, 82, and 29 games. What a downer for Angels fans.
  21. I hope Montero returns to his better self tonight.
