Austin Jackson is brain dead

How can you be so stupid to get picked off....

Rally killer

There's a reason he doesn't steal many bases and it ain't because he can't run.

He's a horrible baserunner. Almost unbelievable for a man with his speed.

How many runs has Detroit given away on the base paths in this series? It seems like they are making 2 or 3 mistakes a game.

Too many to keep track of... Ugh... Frustrating to say the least.

It's been said before many times and is for the most part true, " the better team wins. "

I understand the Tigers are not a running team but this is the post season, they needed to win and put more pressure on the Red Sox. Why didn't they try to run.... especially when Fielder was hitting.

beacause Leyland plays station to station ball.
he never bunts hardly ever hits and runs..

never squeezes.
we had man on 3rd with 1 out 3x. couldn't have aqueezed. but not Leyland.
Jackson is fast. but he hasn't learned to be a base stealer.. Leylands fault????

Bunts actually reduce your probability of winning under most circumstances.
