Dan Dickerson’s call of Miggy’s walkoff Cabrera Beats Giants.m4a

Must be an added feature on my TV.

Why is Gibby cheering for a walk? Getting a second runner on base is key in extra inning games with ghost runners.

Submariner. Who was the old Tiger who did that? Howard Bailey? I remember Joe Coleman and Kevin Saucier would sidearm it.

Nice scoop! now let’s win it in the bottom of the 9th.

Every Tiger in the lineup has a hit today except Vierling. He is due up 2nd in the 9th, perfectly positioned for a walkoff.

12 pitch at bat.

Good for Lashoff for piecing together a 14 year pro career after going undrafted 135 games with the Wings

Lottery odds finalized. Wings at 5% for #1. https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/with-blue-jackets-loss-to-sabres-nhl-draft-lottery-odds-finalized/

I hope you are comfortable about doing that during every extra inning game the Tigers play this season. For superstition purposes. Admit it, you kind of enjoyed it, didn’t you.

Finally the season has a highlight!

The one good thing about the old site’s demise is that as far as I know there is no lasting written record of how much I gushed over him, Veleno and McIsaac on draft day. I believe I called it a “franchise-altering draft”. Or maybe it actually was …:(

And got smoked by Chiasson, the ultimate journeyman.

Final season stats. I’d like to see first half-second half splits for Kubalik and Husso, seems like both fell off pretty hard. Given Ned did the same the year before, Husso’s could have been due to overwork. So need two good goalies for next year with a balanced workload. Husso and someone. Not sure Ned is the backup or not.

I’m so out of it this year I don’t even know who are the top 5 after Bedard.

Lousy end to a disappointing season. 4-0 late. Yzerman has a lot of work to do this off season or the Wings could be really bad next season. Roster as of today is bottom 5.

Funny, I still hold a grudge about 2009 and to this day like to see the Penguins fail. Whereas the Avs feel like a totally different franchise from before, I hardly connect them to the 1996-2002 heated rivalry days. I felt nothing when they won the Cup last year.

No thanks. Reminds me of an ex-girlfriend from 1986. She loved that movie.

After so many years of dysfunction within the Oilers organization, if they win the Cup this year Kenny should be awarded GM of the Decade. Penguins eliminated, by the way.

Awesome! If I'm looking at the tiebreakers correctly, the Penguins now can't catch Florida and can only beat off NYI if the Pens win their final game and the Islanders lose in regulation.

4-1 loss tonight in Carolina. Playing out the string.

I've listened to a fair amount of OHL games the past week, there have been some really good series. I went to school with the Sarnia radio announcer and he recently called his 1,500th OHL game. I was recently in Saskatchewan so followed that series, listened to it last night. Crowds really into it of course. Has a March Madness college basketball vibe to it, but as if early round games were played on campus. CHL playoff games are also available to a watch, for a fee. Am going to look into that now that the Wings are wrapping up and the Sting are into the 2nd round.

Lombardi’s season ended with a loss last night, by the way, as did Connor Bedard’s out west.
