[RandyMarsh]

uh oh it looks like we got wild Soto out there. 

[casimir]

Kwan helping Soto out there.

[JackPine]

I don't like where this is going

[casimir]

Well, OK, Ramirez up to the plate, but he’s not the tying or winning run.  That’s fortunate.

[JackPine]

That injury to Naylor is helping too

[Dave Christian]

Hinch outsmarted himself I'm afraid.

[casimir]

But now the tying run is up to the plate.  Great googly moogly.

[JackPine]

Just throw some strikes, geez

FWIW, VPNs don’t help when it comes to evading blackouts on any iOS device. Apple has their own locator system.

This game is not available in my area.        WHAT?   It's BALLY SPORTS DETROIT !   HOW IS THIS NOT AVAILABLE IN MY AREA.............THEN WHAT DID I PAY FOR AND WHY COULD I WATCH ALL WEEKEND? 

 

Or is this because it's a make up game that was supposed to be played before they had the streaming service, and that's why I can't watch?        

 

Major League Baseball..............why are you so fucking stupid.......................You don't make your product HARDER to access. 

 

The people running this sport, man.  You talk about stupid.

Flip side: they’re getting good and paid.

Away from home and just following on the cartoon on and off, but Hill seemed to generate a lot of popUps. That generally means a live fastball, is that what he featured?

What channel is the cartoon on? Is Shep the voiceover?

Here comes Soto. Hinch has no concern about game 2

Expand  

Perhaps it’s that Game 2 is Game 2 Hinch’s problem, not Game 1 Hinch’s problem.

How about Garrett Hill? 26th rounder coming out of nowhere and mowing down a major league lineup in his first two innings. Nice story.

Reminds of Brieske some in that he's continually underestimated.

So who's next for the Tigers...?

Chance Kirby?

This 2018 draft class has been talented for the Tigers. Maybe give Avila little credit or just lucky?

Expand  

But remember Hill was left off the 40 and exposed to the rule 5 draft which fortunately for Al was cancelled this year.
