Or pop out.

We might walk the bases loaded and yet again come away with no runs.

We're all behind on the pitch count Can't hit 'em Tigers! Resse Olsen's down and we're taking bad swings Can't hit 'em Tigers! There'll be mad in Tiger Town When Kwan goes long And when AJ puts Troy Melton where he doesn't belong We're all behind on the pitch count Can't hit 'em, Detroit Tigers, can't hit 'em Tigersssssssss!!!

I doubt he checks the box on the culture fit any longer after what he did. Now that CB has become likely our biggest need, if they wanted to swing for the fences, I'd love to get a guy like Greg Newsome from the Browns. He's in the final year of his contract on a bad team that's going nowhere. I doubt we'd make a splash move like that, but Newsome is a name I'd love to inquire about.

The Millen Man March was an all time moment in Lions history and good on the fans and hosts at WDFN who finally stood up to old man Ford.

Who is a core hitter again? A guy with a .706 OPS and 74 Ks over the last 60 games?

What can you do if you're AJ Hinch? No one in your lineup is hitting right now. Now amount of maneuvering or playing the analytics will solve this problem.

We're cooked. ****!

We're all behind our baseball swings, don't hit em Tigers!

Remind me again why these are the best hitters in the organization and that Kevin McGonigle wouldn't do any better than anyone on the roster now?

How are you not completely demoralized right now as a Tigers pitcher? You can be close to perfect and it still isn't enough to get a win.

Yeah, you can't keep asking your pitching staff to give up 1 run and still manage to lose the game. This is really a bottom 5 lineup in the league right now. Not just of teams in the playoffs, in the entire league.

Believable, more runners stranded on base. 11 total for the game.

So we replaced strikeout machine Riley Greene, just to watch Jones strikeout.

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DRIVE A RUN IN!

That was a close check swing there, real close.

I didn't think of that scenario. Unlike the Tigers players, I was being selfish and only thinking about the numbers and stats. Not once did I ever stop to consider Bert's feelings. For that, I am truly sorry. I do hope our guys in the dugout are keeping him in mind though.

I don't think at this point in time this team is capable of scoring more than 4-5 runs in a game. The offensive ability simply isn't there right now with the way they are approaching the plate and pressing. Over the last 60 games they have a total of 269 runs and are averaging 4.48 runs per game. Their team OPS in that time frame is a paltry .713 OPS. They are who they are. Every game with this team is going to be a nail bitter because they can't drive runs in and have to manufacture what little offense they get at times. The only time it won't be a nail bitter is when their pitching lets them down and gives up 5-6+ runs in a game. So hope that Mize and Flahrety look good, give them 7 solid innings of 3 runs or less, and hope the bullpen holds. That's our ticket to winning this series and any that come thereafter this postseason.

I'm not up on my UVA vs VATech sports lingo, but I would imagine what she just said would be like speaking at MSU and trying to get the room to chant Go Blue! along with you.

But it's hysterical to call him a fascist don't you know?

What exactly happened to Danielson?

I predicted a sweep every series during the playoffs. Always believed, never doubted. Look, it is one, albeit very important win. I didn't think they would win a single game this series and would get swept out of the playoffs, given how poorly they played down the stretch in August and September. I'll take the win though. Hopefully their mindset is one game at a time this series and that they leave the past in the past.

Damn, what a gift, What was Ramirez thinking there?

What a disaster that was. We're ****ed now.
