5/25 1:10 Tigers @ Twins

that proves it: baez > correa

[mtutiger]

Good call, AJ..... 

At least it's not Ausmus, this game would be over shortly lol

[chasfh]

BIG strikeout of Carlos Correa for the first out.

And here comes A.J. to go get Fulmer. That's fine—he's probably a little wilder today than we need to finish and win the game.

Why didn’t Correa try to sell that as a HBP? I would have bought that.

You've probably played in games with a ghost runner when you were a kid.

this is exactly what I'm getting at when I say "belittling". yes, it's inaccurate, but it's what I like because it gives an unprofessional connotation to the EIR.

Would have required replay to overturn the call, and that clearly wasn't going to happen.

And ANOTHER big strikeout, this one by Chafin!

Just one more ... come on, buddy ...

SOOOOOPERRRR BOOWWWLLSS!!!

[clark1mt]

Am I taking crazy pills, or did the Tigers just win?

[gehringer_2]

Harold for LF for a few games?

[chasfh]

And there's Tork getting the final out on the same kind of play he was spinning around and dropping balls on the first couple weeks of the season!

Ballgame!

Impressed with his defense and offense lately.

I feel like avoiding the sweep in MInnesota is a moral victory all in itself.

I could live with that.  Keep Grossman out for a few days.

[lordstanley]

Dan’s call of the game-ending pop out to Torkelson

It is.  The two losses were demoralizing.  Had to have this one.

Slashing .333/.367/.556 in his last nine games. How great would it be if this is his turnaround at the big league level, the way he turned around after starting horribly slowly at every level before this?
