Sports_Freak Posted October 9, 2024 Posted October 9, 2024 We've witnessed the Ibanez bases loaded clearing double in Houston and Carpenter's 9th inning 3 run home run in Cleveland. What's going to be the hit that we remember from game 3? I predict a dramatic Riley Greene home run! Quote

Motown Bombers Posted October 9, 2024 Posted October 9, 2024 8 minutes ago, lordstanley said: What I remember about 2014 was us fans feeling negative about the team even before the series began. I'm not sure why. This Game 1 lineup was pretty strong and the playoff rotation started with Scherzer, Verlander and Price. The Tigers' regular season record was 90-72. Not sure why even down 2-0 to a 96-win team the fans gave up so easily. As I recall, the Royals were making a late season push and the Tigers didn't clinch the division until about the final day. I also remember the bullpen being bad. That was Nathan was shaky and the trade for Soria turned out to be a bust. Joba, who was good in the first half, struggled in the second half. I also feel like the Tigers had leads in one or both of those games in Baltimore, and the bullpen blew it. Quote

Only given up 4 hits struck out 7 and walked 1 in 27 at bats. He also really settled down game 1. My guess is they will let him go as long as possible until any sign of trouble or breakdown in stuff and then a quick hook. 1 Quote

I don't know...Hinch will pull him for his pitching chaos theory. 2 ip and then a LH pitcher...Holton? Hurter? We'll see... Quote

It was the 8th inning and we already had a 5-4 lead. Thanks, in large part, to Tony Gwynn losing a fly ball in the lights and 2b Alan Wiggins having to catch the in RF with his back turned to the plate. Gibson tagged easily. Without looking it up - who hit that fly ball for the GW RBI ? (For those over 55 it should be easy). Edited October 9, 2024 by Motor City Sonics Quote

IdahoBert Posted October 9, 2024 Posted October 9, 2024 A six run first inning for the Tigers would be a wonderful way to match the six pitch first inning of Montero. 1 Quote

guy incognito Posted October 9, 2024 Posted October 9, 2024 I know it sucks for people who have to be at work and that the shadows will play havoc with the hitters, but *damn* does Comerica look good on an October afternoon. 2 Quote
