There surely must be a word (likely in German) for the terror Tigers fans felt during the final out yesterday between the split second it took for the ball to leave the bat, move out of camera range, and end up safely in Tork’s glove. 

Ich schiss mir in die Hose.

Hunter Brown sitting at 98-97?

Streaming the espn feed.  These announcers are worthy of the mute button.

Streaming Dan and Bobby on Sirius channel 849 so I can mute Michael Kay.

Hunter Brown carved up Vierling pretty good first time around with four seamers in the zone.

The only thing that would be worse would be the stupid whistle that happens after a yankee strikes out somebody.

Nice going on both ends of that play from “McStinky” to TORK!

I had always thought that sound came from some movie, like maybe a Clint Eastwood spaghetti western or something, but I learned while in the stadium this year that it’s part of a local ad jingle. So, doubly stupid.

Great play McStinky

I know Alvarez is hurt, but he did not jog all the way to touch first base on that groundout, and that’s bad luck. I hope. 😁

I didn’t realize Hunter Brown is a Detroit native and grew up a Tigers fan. 

According to Dan he makes his offseason home in downtown Detroit.

Yeah, it was best described in "For the Love of the Game" movie with all the fans waving birch sticks for the player named Birch.  And in real life with all the fans in RF wearing judicial robes for Aaron Judge.  Yankee self-obsession is annoying and must be mocked.

Is that close to District Detroit?

Tim Kurkjian, ladies and gentlemen.  He’lol be here all week

This is probably a failure of my own imagination, but I don’t think of white guys named Hunter Brown as the type to live in downtown Detroit during the offseason.

You have not been to downtown Detroit in a while. White flight is over......

[romad1]

if Tork takes him deep it would really be playing against type

[romad1]

well, he's on anyway

[chasfh]

TORK! Are you kidding me! That might be the headiest thing I have seen him do for us!

[monkeytargets39]

Altuve is a poor defender

[romad1]

woah, 2 out rally!

[monkeytargets39]

McStinky!

[SoCalTiger]

McStinky bringing the A game

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Tigers applying pressure at the very least. time for Sweeney to pad his postseason stats.

[romad1]

ah well...keep up the pressure.
