As he should. They went on a remarkable run and that is the story, not the tigers losing.

Is the clubhouse celebration available anywhere?

This is metrodome bull****.

When did Danica Patrick become a nutjob? Did I miss something?

**** yeah If this holds up game 3 would be on my birthday.

Well that’s the ballgame. I don’t trust this bullpen for a minute. Wpuld have ridden Jack as long as possible.

His country music doc is my favorite work of his.

Yes ABC.

White gets to play both Springsteen and Kerry Von Erich.

Skubal is going to be a free agent. He will not sign a contract with Detroit or any other team he gets traded to. He's spoken about his business obligation. The only way I see him signing before free agency is if he gets an absurd contract that's 20% above the current record for a P. He knows he's in a position to set a new standard for free agent pitchers.

I'm not emotionally invested in this team. They lost me during the last week of the season, maybe the Friday Boston game. If they win, I'll be happy, but if they lose I won't let it ruin my day. Frankly, if they win, then they'll be back to where they should have been in mid september. Except they won't have home field.

I have an eye doctor appointment appt at 3. I was going to move it but then I said screw it. I have a 90 day window that’s closing on these glasses they gave me. I might miss something awesome or something bad.

I had to turn notifications off on my app. I got the alert before the pitch was thrown. There’s supposed to be a 30 sec delay too. ESPN is behind.

and he's not going to resign before hitting FA. Even if the Tigers offered him a deal in the 35-40M range over 5-7 years.... that's an offer by a team competing against itself. That's an old market. He's been clear about feeling an obligation to set the market for his peers and those who come after. That's just the way it is. He's making what he makes because others did it before him.

yes. Before it was his head and torso sticking out of the water. Got struck by lightning.

This is my favorite attraction on 75 in Ohio. I always have to get gas right before this so I'm freshened up, have some snacks and a coffee and only a few more hours before home. Next stop is the rest area near Wapakoneta. That one has some nice walking trails to stretch out.

one young man looked like he was going to cry. Sad fans make me happy. Unless I"m in a pool or have money on a game, I do the same thing in the NCAA tournament.

It's the look of a good pitcher. A sign of maturity.

When it’s sox and yanks I root for the visiting team.

I know the windmills. I don’t need the map to get where I am going but I keep it up for traffic and such. I really wish there was a “tag” feature because I pass by so many large complexes and structures that I want to check out. I mean Ike you say, driving thru cornhole with nothing around then you suddenly see a 30,000 sq foot office building with a full parking lot. That’s gotta be something important. I love looking at Google maps and street view. Sometimes I pick a random city and just browse around. It’s like visiting.

I was just spitballing. I didn’t rewind it and was too depressed to check further because I assumed he would score and the Tigers wpuld lose. I agree with G2’s later assessment that he lost his footing. That’s a play he’s made a lot and it didn’t look too difficult in real time. Something happened for him to miss it in my opinion other than just missing it. And yes I did play ball in high school and after in an adult league. I’d say above average but never the best player on the team. Maybe I could have played in a small college if I worked harder? But I had a girlfriend. I did have a good arm from the outfield though. I loved throwing strikes from out there. My favorite play to watch today. A good relay from the corner to the IF to the plate to nail the runner is better than sex.

Ohio's refurbishing their rest stops. The last 3 going south on 75 are closed. So it's Findlay then bust for me in a few weeks. And the one just north of Cincy was nice. It looked new. It wouldn't be so bad if 75 wasn't always a cluster in Cincy trying to cross the bridge.

my ESPN feed froze up as the final out was up in the air..... and I kept waiting to get the alert on my phone that the Tigers won, it's pretty instantaneous..... no alert so I was getting nervous.

I knew they’d come thru.
