Tigers need 3 outs, with 4 runs to play with.

Carp busts it open!

I believe the Tigers have lost 6 of their past 7 series. Really need a win today.

Some Detroit sportscasters are surprisingly old and long-tenured. I guess anyone under 30 would consider them to have been around forever. George Blaha - 80. Pistons PBP since 1976. Mickey Redmond - 77. Red Wings tv color since 1986. Paul Woods - 77. Red Wings radio color since 1987. Mark Champion - 75. Pistons PBP since 2001. Ken Kal - 67. Red Wings PBP since 1995. Dan Dickerson - 66. Tigers PBP since 2000. Ken Daniels - 66. Red Wings PBP since 1997. Dan Miller - 63. Lions PBP since 2005. Here is how old famous Detroit broadcasters were when they retired. Ernie Harwell - 84. Tigers PBP 1960-2002. Jim Price - 81 (died, was broadcaster in the season of his death). Tigers color 1993-2023. George Kell - 74. Tigers PBP 1959-1996. Jim Brandstatter - 71. Michigan color/PBP 1979-2021. Al Kaline - 67. Tigers color 1975-2002. Bob Reynolds - 67. Lions PBP 1952-1982. Bruce Martyn - 65. Red Wings PBP 1964-1995. Frank Beckmann - 64. Michigan PBP 1981-2013. Paul Caray - 63. Tigers PBP 1973-1991. Bob Ufer - 61 (died, was broadcaster in the season of his death). PBP 1945-1981.

I don't use Reddit for sports, but I do use it for local news of various cities in which I'm interested and for travel. It's a good source of real-time information and for dialogue that - despite anonymity - for the most part remains civil and constructive, probably due to having moderaters and upvotes/downvotes.

I save all my passion and negativity and channel it instead towards the scourge of e-bikes and e-scooters on sidewalks. We need to bring back the electric chair in Canada. Just for that.

As shaky as the Tigers have been, a big part of the story is the Guardians going 21-7 (.750 ball for 28 games) if they hang on to their 3-1 8th inning lead tonight after being under .500 most of the year. If the Guardians had simply gone 17-11, still better than they had started the year, the Tigers' lead would be near double digits.

Petry jinxed it.

From Wikipedia:Morton has the most career batters hit by pitch of active pitchers with 189.

I’m disappointed the Tigers aren’t up by a few runs, for as hittable as Kikuchi has been and as lights out Morton has been.

Morton strikes out the side and has 8 Ks through 3 innings.

Morton strikes out the side and has 5 Ks through 2 innings.

Yankees beat the Astros. Houston is now 2 back of the Tigers, Seattle is 3 back.

Eugenio Suarez has played 8 games for the Mariners since being acquired at the deadline, going 3 for 31 including striking out 13 times for an .097 avg, 1 HR, 3 RBI, .347 OPS.

Guardians win. Astros win. Jays-Dodgers scoreless early.

Tigers win! Vierling with the biggest moment of the season so far, arguably.

Whew. 1 down after a fair or foul scare.

I fell asleep watching the 6 o’clock (Pacific time) news at 4-3. Woke up, flipped over, and it’s 6-5. Now let’s get some insurance.

Riley! Watch him fly!

Skubal yanked.

Back to back homers! Angels up 4-3.

82 pitches with Skubal with 1 out in the 5th. Will be lucky if he goes 6. 3-3 tie.

Skubal not dominant tonight.

Guardians up 5-0 over White Sox in the top of the 1st.

Tork-bomb! He (.821) now has a higher OPS than Greene (.814)
