Series Thread: Hockey town vists Football town for baseball?

Detroit to me is a lot like Seattle- terrible record and capable of being swept, but still a lot of talent there and not a pushover.

The key to this series will be running up the pitch counts on both Verlander and Norris and getting to face their horrendous bullpen.... then making sure we don't make awful Matt Boyd look like a Cy Young winner in Game 3.

In other words, as long as we treat their bad ERA pitchers like they should be treated, this should be at least a 2 out of 3 series win for us.

Naw......just have your wife hide all the breakables, drive you wherever you need to go, and call in sick to work as much as necessary.

For me, I'm gonna feel A WHOLE LOT BETTER if we come out and beat Verlander tonight.

We need to come out focused and execute our plan.

I wish Beltre was batting 3rd. Prince is a strikeout machine right now.

Here we are in the middle of a pennant race, yet, posters have disappeared like there's no tomorrow. But we know there is!

What's happening here guys?

Have never wanted to see a guy when 18 games so bad............go Colby

 

[MajorCharlesRane]

Colby is probably going to need to win 19.

 

[DT LUNA]

Nasty slider and Mig can't get it.

 

[romeo212000]

DeShields with another fly ball.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Choo missed on a very hittable pitch there.

 

[Duane1952]

DeShields with another fly ball.

Seems like those home runs he hit went to his head.

 

[romeo212000]

Not seeing Verlander will so far.

 

[romeo212000]

Way, way too aggressive.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Don't run. Make him throw pitches. Thanks Hamilton and Odor for making him throw 2 total pitches.

Josh won't get one strike in his next at bat.

Go Rangers. Colby doing his part so far

 

[WastinSomeTime]

Those pitches are catching too much of the plate.

 

[WastinSomeTime]

No chance for Gimenez there.

 

[donaldson79]

No chance for Gimenez there.

You could have bearing have shot that guy with a deer rifle with the running start he got.

But hey, the K is king, and Colby did a great job for the 2nd out.

 

[romeo212000]

Shit, Colby. No more of that shit.
