If one of several players had just gotten one hit at various points in this game then Seattle fans are bitching about their team like tiger fans are. That’s baseball and that’s playoff baseball. I reject the sports talk show takes. The other team wants to win too. They have good pitchers. We have good pitchers. This wasn’t some blowout. We held their guys. They held ours. We made defensive plays. They made defensive plays. At some point there’s a break. This game and series was a coin flip. You don’t need to make any grand conclusions because of it. You don’t alter a blackjack strategy because of a few hands.

I’m glad it wasn’t a walk.

As a Tiger fan it will hurt. As a baseball fan it was amazing.

Just give them the storybook ending.

It was always going to be Kahnle.

This ought to do it.

Can’t wait to see this ump scorecard.

Go ahead run in again.

I’m drank all of my booze.

What a ****ing game.

Wait so you can square to bunt and have it hit your finger then it’s a HBP? That avoids be done every time the bases are loaded.

I hate the contact play too but in that case you end up in the same situation either way. 2nd and 3rd and 2 out. Maybe they throw it away. like Montero did just now.

Did you know it’s his birthday?????

My hope going into the year was to do as well as last year. They’ve done that. Yeah this game should be at home but I am not sure if wpuld matter in terms of outcome.

I don’t know. She might unless some curse. I’m thinking of that thing in clash of the titans.

What was that they just showed on TV? Looked like rocky horror picture show. Or some 81 year old celeb with too much work.

This is the moment I was afraid of. and this feed, at least for me, is a pitch behind gameday.

Skubal did his job. 9 more outs.

This game will come down to a reach out and touch it 2B, and fat guy steal being the difference. Baseball.

I’m not going to get mad. I’m not going to get mad. I’m not going to get mad.

This ump is garbage. I count 6 pitches so far called strikes for Kirby but not Skubal.

Their ability to foul off pitches is going to end Skubal night earlier. We don’t do that.

But who? I’m nervous. It’s the playoffs. Look what happened last night. Skubal could to 8 and we lose in a walk off. I can envision so many scenarios but the hardest to shake is a rocking stadium in the late innings and a key base hit. Last games offense gives hope but I still have trouble forgetting the last month. I’m just going to enjoy it.
