MLB put up a nice highlight video of the Tigers run to the playoffs.

No one will know or care about run differential. 121 is all anyone will remember.

Is that good?

"Undecided" should get a few Cy Young votes, too.

He should win it. He did more actual managing to get here than any other.

Perfect night in Central Texas. Hanging out on the balcony with a cold beer and my dog listening to celebration interviews on 97.1. What a great night.

Welcome back, brother!

Hi, buddy!

Had to work super late, so I couldn't watch. Thank God for internet radio and VPNs

Whatever. Pizza Boy needs to spend now, Harris needs to sign some real FAs and Hinch needs to pull his head out of his azz. /sarc obvs.

Valente has shown the Tigers plenty of love - specifically Fetter and Hinch -- but he's not wrong about the Twins collapse being the main reason this great run could pay off with a playoff appearance. If the Twins and Royals even go four games under .500 over the same period, the Tigers aren't even close. It's okay to acknowledge that their collapses are just as crucial to this as the Tigers incredible run.

Effing Miami.

Yeah, they're playing some pissed off baseball right now. I can think of a few other teams I'd rather face than them to close this out.

Don't let the Tigers get hot...

Welcome back Colt Keith

Mize getting Ks is a nice development.

Shep was just bad at baseball -- way too intensely serious for the pace of the game. I think he's a solid basketball PBP guy.

I'd be good with that. Alex has the calmer demeanor that works well with Benetti.

Same. Dickerson is pretty much the same with whomever is in the booth with him, and Dirks is at his best with him. Benetti is too easily distracted when paired with someone who tries to match him at his own game. He's at his best with someone like Peaches or Gibby, both of whom tend to be far more game-focused.

Tork looks fixed!

Waymo in the house.

Riley got lucky because this ump is terrible.

Tork looks broken.

Twins already down 3-0 in the 1st.

Keith looks broken.
