4/26/25 DH 1:10 & 6:10 Orioles @ Tigers

I really want us to win this game, but in all reality, if they can only score 3 runs on average against what is considered one of the worst pitching staffs in baseball the Tigers don’t actually “deserve” to win this game.

Hurter throws back-to-back pitches in the *exact same spot*, and one is called a ball and the other a strike, lmao!

'deserves' got nothing to do with it.

[motownblues]

A little bit more clutch hitting please.

Tork! insurance runs!

[holygoat]

Tork is unreal this year.

[IdahoBert]

Spencer Torkelson doubles (8) on a fly ball to left fielder Ramón Laureano. Trey Sweeney scores. Gleyber Torres scores.

Now it does. 😇

The O’s have been reduced to putting in pitchers making their MLB debut as garbage time.

[Motor City Sonics]

This is about to be a 7-2 game !

[chasfh]

There you go, Bert!

[holygoat]

My God, what has gotten into Zach effing McKinstry this year?

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Totally agree. Dan and Andy are the best combo imho 

Dirk's description of Keith not getting his bottom half out in front of his upper body was a good bit - it put me in mind of Victor Reyes, who had the same issue but an order of magnitude worse - that 6'5" 200lb frame couldn't generate any consistent power because he never learned to get his hips out in front of his swing.

Tigers now working on increasing their RAB: Runs Above Bert.

Their offseason was an epic failure.  Lost their HR hitter and their ace and replaced with next to nothing.    Can you imagine being an O's fan and having years of futility and now you've had two great seasons, but needed pitching and your team does almost nothing?    How furious would we be?        They are still young, but they are flushing prime years down the drain.

After 7

 

Tigers, Bert

Orioles, 2

This Tigers team is the one I’ve been dreaming of since I started getting into sabermetrics and analytics over a quarter century ago.
