  1. R.I.P. Ray Lane, one of many super broadcasters we enjoyed for decades https://www.fox2detroit.com/news/broadcasting-legend-ray-lane-dies-95
  2. lol, a walkoff hit by the pitch. After an IBB to load the bases the batter before that.
  3. Guardians 90ft away from the playoffs and a share of the Central lead again.
  4. The Tigers have played .667 ball over the past 3 games.
  5. Play of the game.
  6. While the clubhouse celebration seems like a bit of overkill, it could be really good for the team. Release the pressure and give them a fresh start for the new season on Tuesday.
  7. Relieved as much as happy. No matter what else happens this season, at least the Tigers have managed to maintain a shred of dignity. Blowing the division AND missing the playoffs altogether could have taken years to live down.
  8. Ahh, I didn’t know about the day off.
  9. Despite what the shirts say, I don’t think “October baseball” is ensured for any of the wildcard round teams. Losers in two games would be done by Tuesday night September 30, no?
  10. This is the hit that did it.
  11. That was surprisingly easy. The fans deserved that for all we have been through the past 2 weeks.
  12. Funnily enough, there is still a chance the Tigers-Astros could meet in wildcard round. Would happen if Detroit and Houston win their last two and Cleveland loses their last two. Houston would have a long way to fly tomorrow from LA to Detroit.
  13. 3 outs to go. At 15 pitches so far, I would trust Holton more than Vest for the 9th but you know that’s not going to happen.
  14. Right, that’s what I’m afraid. It’s Russian roulette with this pen so the quick hooks today of pitchers doing fine worries me.
  15. 9 outs from the playoffs and sole possession of 1st place for the moment. Still need to ‘pen-proof this game though with more outs.
  16. That should have been a double play. That’s on Tork even though the throw wasn’t perfect.
  17. I think the Red Sox are totally prepared to gift this game to the Tigers but the Tigers must do their part.
  18. I like Bobby Scales. He played in the minors, majors and Japan and also has front office experience. Has some good thoughts. He is enthusiastic. I still thinks he talks too fast for radio, but either he is getting better or I am getting used to him.
  19. Javy!! Even the Boston crowd is cheering.
  20. Tigers trail 1-0.
  21. If Cleveland and Detroit are tied after game 162 and face each in the wildcard round, it would be very similar to 2009. The wildcard round would break the tie, the Tigers would be on the road, and the winner advances to the ALDS. Instead of Game 163 it would be Games 163-165.
  22. I’m oddly confident that Montero will have a decent start today. Something like 3 runs in 5 2/3 innings. Not superb, but if the Tigers would get a clutch hit for a change it could be good enough.
