Looking for a bounce back game from Flaherty. 

[AZTigersfan]

I’m still disappointed about the routine grounder Mckinstry missed in game one yesterday. I know Hinch won’t bench him for a week but I sure would like to see it. Anything to send a wake up call to these guys would be good IMO.

Looking for an offensive bounce back. And maybe enough of these utility players on defense in extra innings?

[AZTigersfan]

Lead off double by Greene, now can we get productive ABs from Canha and Tork?

[Sports_Freak]

Canha just isn't a very good situational hitter. Man at 2nd and nobody out? Gotta at least move him over.

Wouldn’t have mattered. Tork with his hundredth pop up. Do we even have a hitting coach???

[RatkoVarda]

Green Monster; Tori Hunter wall

Down 2-0    Feels like it's already over with this offense.

[AZTigersfan]

Well that should be enough, though Flaherty sure looks like he isn’t done giving up runs. 

[Motor City Sonics]

Alex Lange, did you put on a Jack Flaherty jersey?

A bad offense can put a lot of pressure on pitchers to try to be perfect.

[kdog]

I think meadows has struck out in every at bat since Friday…time is running out.

[AZTigersfan]

Meadows followed by Baez has to be a violation of the Geneva Convention.

Well it's not mental error so I don't think I would bench him as punishment. I would bench him because he's not very good but since so few are playing well that might not be in order also. I do think if Leonard or Kridler were healthy he might not be on the team. I mean if Kridler wasn't hurt he would be up playing lots of shortstop as well.

[Dtrain72]

Greene hitting leadoff is bad and should make AJ feel bad.

[AZTigersfan]

Man Ober is just laying that 92 mph fastball right down the middle and we can’t do a thing with it. 🤮 

[Tigerbomb13]

Meatball slider 

[Dtrain72]

Flaherty probably wishes he was pitching against the Tigers, they def cant hit those meatballs

 

[Tigerbomb13]

Tork is the king of pop outs 

[AZTigersfan]

Ober did everything he could to walk Tork, but he was so determined to hit a weak popup. Smh
