LOL.  Is Josh Lewin still around somewhere?

[theroundsquare]

he was doing mets games for a while.  not sure anymore

[oblong]

Remember when Fox Sports Net was new?  They used to troll ESPN with commercials about how they would be showing real sports and not some of the things ESPN was known for in the early days.  They'd show what looks like some Easter European guys in a dungeon seated across from each other like you think they would start arm wrestling, then a guy would just slap the other  one and everybody cheers.  Loved those.

God that book was a lifesaver in the pre digital cable days.

Josh and Gibby's interactions were always the butt of jokes with my friends and I. Like they always just came up with random conversations out of nowhere.

Josh: Fick with an rbi double to bring the Tigers within 1

Gibby: "So did you see SNL on Saturday Josh"

*ten minute discussion about snl ensues.*

So, it appears that Baez is getting hot with the bat and now they have moved him out of the cleanup spot.

Best looking ballpark in all of baseball. 

[kdog]

Probably trying to split up Cabrera and Baez with a lefty in between.

I don't like his dad at all, but I am really rooting for Kody to get a hit before he goes back to Ohio.

Apparently they’re moving “full bore” month out to July now.

Baez K’s on a pitch to the batters box 🙄

[kdog]

Baez sees 4 sliders on 5 pitches...foul tip on pitch 4...swinging strike on pitch 5.

[Dave Christian]

Yeah, maybe he's cooling off already😂

[Motor City Sonics]

Faedo is interesting.   Doesn't have great stuff but he tends to gut it out and get the key out when he needs to.   

Living a Charmed Life so far,  but that won't last forever.

We looked seriously at driving up to Pittsburgh for this mini series months ago. We located and priced lodging, identified several restaurants to visit. My wife chose a couple of area interests as well to check out. This was an ideal trip as you catch an evening game and get back out to the park for a 12:30 start. Tickets were reasonable and seat locations were great!
A couple of weeks back I pulled the plug on it. This team really doesn’t inspire a round trip from NC to Pittsburgh. Frankly, it just isn’t worth the time and money. I miss the days when I would be all over a road trip to see the Tigers play.

Crap, Clemens out on a deep fly ball!

At least he gets the bat on the ball compared to a number of our starters.

[kdog]

Haase's hard hit % is down 13% from last year. His HR/FB% was way fluky at 22%...this year at 8%.

I don't know.  I feel like trying to watch this team every night can be tiresome, but a road trip is a road trip.  I get to see a different city and a different park and the outcome is not as important to me.  

[Motor City Sonics]

That is the most DH-looking guy ever !

[raind]

Damn does Miggy look overweight.

[Motor City Sonics]

Soooooooooooooooo Close. 

[Motor City Sonics]

We only need a base hit Javy, you don't have to try to kill the ball.

Guy behind home plate looks like Leyland.
