Tigers need to take a game in New York. Game 1 seems the most winnable. Fister has been very good and New York may not have had adequate time to adjust since they just played yesterday.

I want game one badly.

Who is "Rick Roll?"

 

[flyersfan4706]

Who is "Rick Roll?"

Heard he is starting for Jeter

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Based on his moves, it looks like he'll be a threat to run on the basepaths.

 

[flyersfan4706]

Looks like he has got a swing in his step, too. Could be dangerious at the plate.

 

[pixburgher66]

Lets go Ti-gers! *clapclap clapclapclap*

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

2-out basehit for Cabrera but that's all. Yankees due up.

 

[pixburgher66]

Come on Fister...get your crap together.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Yankee strike zone tonight. Fox K tracker has 3-4 balls in or touching the strike zone, but it's a 5-pitch walk.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

PERALTA!!!!!!!!

 

[pixburgher66]

Whew, that was clllloooose.

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

Whew, that was clllloooose.

But how close? Glenn close?

 

[puckhead]

A-Rod back in for bases loaded, 2 out at bat.
I fully expected either a K or a Grand Slam.

but that'll do. *phew*

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

All too familiar with Tiger bats going down 1-2-3.

 

[pixburgher66]

...this isn't going to be a theme Fister, is it?

 

[Winged_Wheel88]

YES. Oh dear Lord.

 

[pixburgher66]

Oh man, that was the wrong call. I'm like 99% sure he was safe. GREAT play by Peralta though. Again.
