Game time subject to change, as far as I understand. The Padres are on their way to forcing a Game 3, in which case the Tigers would either be playing at 1:08pm ET if the other two series also get extended, or at 3:08pm if one or two series finish today. If the Cubs come back to eliminate the Padres today and the other two series also wrap up today, then the Tigers would play tomorrow night.

By my count, the Tigers have scored 2 or fewer runs in 9 of their past 13 games, have scored 3 or fewer runs in 11 of their past 13 games and haven’t scored 6 runs or more in their past 18 games.

If Dingler gets on McK would come up as the tying run at the plate.

And a ball 4 to JHM was called a strike a couple of pitches ago.

The Mariners watching this can’t be seeing anything to fear.

If I were Cleveland I’d now send someone else out for the 9th.

So as I was saying …

Still a slim chance if Hurter can get this hitter.

Only good thing is that if the Tigers had taken advantage of some chances and were ahead going into the 8th they would have blown it all this inning anyways.

Of course. Guardians do nothing all day and then with one swing of the bat the #9 hitter hits his 6th homer of the year to put Cleveland ahead.

Melton time.

12 runners left on base, 7 in scoring position.

lol, the catcher might as well have stood up and set up directly behind the left handed batters box.

He could have waited and pinch hit for Perez. I’d rather a left handed strikeout machine Greene than a right handed deep slump Perez

Terrible call! Jones was really walked.

Greene can’t let this get to 2 strikes.

1st and 3rd 0 out in a 7inning tie game. LFG!!

Right, the Tigers took a 100% sure thing (the 2nd run) and put it on the table risking a marginally better chance of scoring an additional run than if the runner had stopped at 2nd. Meadows has only a 30% chance of even getting on base.

Yeah, and I guess Hinch alluded to that in the on-field interview just before that when he said Skubal’s outing yesterday kept some bullpen arms rested.

Is Mize hurt? This is weird.

Holy, what a huge call.

Did the 2nd run score before the play at 3rd?

2 on 0 out turns to 3 straight strikeouts of the 3-4-5 hitters and 0 runs. Frustration remains.

A week ago Rocchio would have made that play. The tide is turning.

Really good day of baseball. Yankees load the bases in the bottom of the 9th with no outs and trailing by 2, but Chapman buckles down going strikeout, fly out and strikeout to save it.
