3 hits in 5 pitches, two of them for extra bases.

Tigers running wild.

When has Jack White ever been happy?

I assess little likelihood of him saying "if I ain't startin', I ain't departin;".

Dodgers have been swept for the 2nd straight series and now have lost 6 straight. What a shame, you have to feel for their fans.

Wasnt' that rundown on Tork for coming towards McKinstry?

He clearly has taken advantage of the MLB app to improve his baseball vocabulary. I wonder if he has taken a hack at which former MLB player or manager said a certain quote.

Jays’ win streak is over. It’s about time, that crap was getting old.

That’s a hell of a carom.

This is the MLB Free Game of the Day. I can watch it free on my PC, iPad or phone but lately the MLB app on my Samsung TV has been locking the “free” games.

Yes, I believe (not certain) the current 3.5 game lead over Houston is the Tigers’ high water mark for the season with respect to AL lead. And the Yankees have fallen 8 back of the Tigers, Tampa 9.5 and Seattle 10. I don’t think Tampa with so many road games left will make a run and I don’t think Seattle is good enough to make up so much on the Tigers unless they sweep them this weekend. So it’s really just Houston, Toronto, and possibly NYY standing in the way of the Tigers and a bye - the Tigers just need to finish ahead of two of those three.

Guardians get a 2-out grand slam in the 10th, lead 10-6. Tom Hamilton is happy.

5 straight wins and 8 of 10. Good, the Tigers had been temporarily treading water for a bit in June.

The Athletic says the Tigers are like Teri Hatcher’s breasts.

Dodgers have been outscored 38-7 in their last 4 games, all losses.

I think Gavin McKenna is a special case. Overall, there might be only as much NIL in college hockey as in women’s gymnastics.

Guardians snap their 10-game losing streak with a win over Houston.

To clinch by the end of August, need to get that lead up to 24 games. Not impossible, lol. At 58-34 with 70 to go, the Tigers could go 32-38 the rest of the way and still win 90 games. Play .500 the rest of the way and they win 93. To hit 100 wins they'll need to go 42-28 the rest of the way - that's a tall order but they're on pace. The division race is over so to me the rest is all about win totals and getting the #1 or #2 AL seed.

Tigers win! 14 game lead, 24 games over .500.

Dan just said on the radio that no Tigers team at any time of any season has ever had a lead bigger than 15.5 games. Division lead right now is 13.5 games over Minnesota.

Another sad broadcaster of an opposing team. These are almost as good as listening to Dickerson calls of big moments.

Yankees broadcaster and Jays broadcaster have a beef. The first is arrogant, the other's a dork. https://nypost.com/2025/07/06/sports/michael-kay-claps-back-at-fawning-fanboy-blue-jays-broadcaster/

Karlsson has played 82 games each of the past 3 seasons and put in great production in his final year with SJ and good production his two years with Pittsburgh. So I guess he is considered to be back to full health, albeit aging?

I wouldn’t even care what they think. They’ve earned nothing. Collapsed the past two years in March. Supposedly demoralized that Yzerman didn’t add at the deadline. So if he does go out and make moves they might sulk if the addition isn’t of the right age or right contract?
