Good Lord, Roboumps please

Well that was a ride.... didn't have his best stuff tonight

Goodness, I thought Buxton had that one

Shep got his math wrong... unless the Tork bomb on Saturday was my imagination

Some enterprising Tiger fan oughtta make a GIF outta that

BAEZ!!!!

And that's why you take the walk instead of swinging at four balls out of the zone lol

Lange brought his good stuff tonight

Trying to hit the homer... simple as that. Even if Derek Hill isn't a power hitter, better to take the base and make Thielbar get the next guy out.

We are hard on ERod, but honestly, if he was getting run support, it'd be easier to accept that outing.

Really would have liked to seen Tork behind Baez there lol

Man, that makes the Meadows DP ball even harder

Wow, multiple guys on with the good part of the order up... feels like its been a while lol

Yep, ERod hasn't been great, but it's kinda hard to be too concerned with him when the offense looks like crap. Put another way, if this team ends up losing 3-0, how do you blame the pitching for that?

We've reached the part of the broadcast where Shep/Morris make Paddock out to be second coming of Tom Seaver...

Feeling good about my 3-0 prediction lol

Gotta get Meadows in there... that sucks

Pretty ugly showing so far from the offense again...

Agreed.

I've had the good fortune of being in a lot of ballparks over the years, including such gems as Tropicana Field and Le Stade Olympique. (/s) There's has been no experience worse than the Metrodome though.... particularly sitting down the third base line, where looking at home plate required one to crane their neck at a 50 degree angle to see home plate.

Hill getting the start is interesting.... Kinda feel for Baddoo, but wouldn't mind seeing Hill get a little runway. Especially given how he plays center.

Lineup adjustment has been made....

I do agree on the catcher experiement, something's gotta give. Particular given Barnhart's relatively improved performance over the weekend.

Apropos of nothing, from an engineering standpoint, American Family Field in Milwaukee is still the gold standard IMO.... the park has a lot of character, not a bad sight line in the house and getting into/out of the park is as easy as any park in Major League Baseball. Of course, they built out where old County Stadium was and there's not nearly the challenge in terms of real estate that a more urban park the builders of a place like Comerica or Target Field had to contend with.
