Fun fact: Miller has pitched in each of their extra inning games, and even with the runner on 2nd rule, still has a 0.00 ERA.

The ghost runner hasn't scored. Ever, this season. But even if he did score, it's an unearned run. Stupid rules, everything about it.

Oh yeah, those three are def on the Mt. Rushmore of umping ass.

Its not a place i would ever want to visit.

Must be the money!  Pitchers will get dinged in contract negotiations/arbitration for ERA.  No ghost runner earned run = a non-zero impact on keeping ERAs low

How many 5 game winning streaks did we have in 2023?

[IdahoBert]

So is the umpire’s union headed up by a guy with the last name of Soprano? Is that why Angel still has a job?

[mtutiger]

At least Michael Tonkin's ERA went up after this outing (he achieved Derek Law status in the last game - 5 runs, 0 earned)

[Tigermojo]

Matt Manning back in the bigs.

[Tigermojo]

The bullpen gave up one hit. Unbelievable.

How long between games?

Well, in fairness, the Mets infielders were booting the ball around like a hot potato. Including Tonkin misplaying a sure DP.

I have to go back and look at the Derek Law game from a couple of years ago, but I'm pretty sure Law committed an error in his game too lol

So that’s 2:20 in my time zone in the mountain time zone. That’s 20 minutes from now great.

Do wins in April count?

[IdahoBert]

The Tigers are the only undefeated MLB team left.

Only 1:00 here and I've already watched a game.

I see Pittsburgh is leading their central division in the NL. They’re 5-1. I hope their hot start is more of a fluke than ours ….

Pittsburgh lead the NL central for while in the first half last year. 
Tigers will be in Pittsburgh next week. Battle of the “natural rivals.”

My FB memories yesterday reminded me of when in 2016 when I came out there and was watching the Tigers the afternoon I arrived at that frog bar or whatever it is, Treasure Island, I think?  It's right on the strip and easily accessible.
