No. We know who's gonna pitch the 9th. Hinch's new BP toy.

Long suffering fans are starved for a winner. Thank you, Mr. Harris!

So after the Tigers win tonight, are fans just gonna stay home the next 2 games? 😅😅

Hopefully, the WSox are using up all their LH pitchers and the Tigers LH hitters will feast in the next 2 games. 6 more outs please.

They come right out, last time I called, they were out the next day. They put little red flags. No charge either, it was free.

Hit a big fly.

12 more outs!

1-800-Miss-dig

OK, this is the inning we score.

40,000 fans there?

It's getting late early.

We're gonna score this inning.

Best seats in the house. I love it up there.

And Sizemorecwas ALWAYS hurt. Crashing into walls and stuff...Granderson was a much better player.

Get all the enemy hitters out!!

Is Hanifee stretched out? Who's the bulk guy today?

And his ride said...you're on your own...lol

4 pages before the 1st pitch. There were games we didn't get 4 pages after 9 innings...lol

I've been very critical of him all season but it's usually hindsight. An after-the-fact knee-jerk reaction. With the roster he's had to work with all season? And certain players not performing? He's been nothing short of amazing. I've seen people saying the Cleveland manager will win manager of the year just because they won the division. And KC lost over 100 games all year and are close to making the playoffs. But nobody has done a better job than Hinch, nobody. At least, IMO.

The sportswriters of America will never vote for Hinch. The stench of the Houston cheating scandal will follow him the rest of his career. IMO, he deserves to win manager of the year but sportswriters are total jerks.

It's too bad for the Twins and KC that baseball doesn't end the season after 120 games. The Tigers poor early season record allowed those teams to build a lead. The Twins and Royals poor play in the late season allowed the Tigers to catch them by winning at a .650 clip. But we never would have caught them if we weren't playing great baseball.

**** McAuliffe hitting into his first double play of the season ending our 1967 season. Or...so I've read.

A bunt. A long forgotten fundamental play. Players never asked to bunt in the minors, never taught how to bunt and never practice bunting. And then they're asked to bunt in a pressure situation. Stupid baseball play by stupid players and a stupid manager asking for something stupid. Just...stupid ball being played in Minnesota. They deserve an early off-season.

I see Atlanta winning 2 of 3 from KC. So if (when) the Tigers win 2 of 3 from the WSox, we get the 2nd wildcard and play in Baltimore. And have Skubal in game one. Against Burnes.

A 2nd round pick from the Bears is pretty close to a late 1st round pick from the Lions. Possibly.
