  1. Although I chide Todd Jones I want to reiterate that I like him. He is a part of the lore of this club. My understanding is that Ernie loved him. I also understand that he’s a huge baseball fan who immersed himself in the history and lore of every team he played for because it was important to him and to the fans for whom he performed. In this sense he’s one of us, only he happens to actually have been a player too.
  2. Every team, but the Tigers, in the Central won today with collateral damage occurring at the expense of the Blue Jays and the Astros, both of whom we need to see fall. We still have envious leads over everyone, so aside from the Tigers losing it was a tremendous day.
  3. Guardians now leading Astros 4–0.
  4. The Guardians have righted their leaking ship and are still leading the Astros in the seventh 2–0.
  5. In terms of “scoreboard watching“ the White Sox won today and the Royals, the Guardians, and the Twins are all leading in their respective games.
  6. Studio on Apple TV was really good. It’s amazing how they managed to make studio execs characters you could empathize with, sort of a “sympathy for the devil” kind of thing.
  7. It’s free for me. My son pays for it and I like to watch the Foundation series which will be out soon, but that’s about the only thing I’ve watched on it aside from a couple other series.
  8. The audio in AJ‘s Detroit-based post game remarks is truly awful. I noticed when they were on the road the audio was normal. I don’t know why they can’t fix this.
  9. Looking forward to Friday’s game now.
  10. Loss. The Rays won this game. The Tigers didn’t lose it. I guess.
  11. Five runs would do it. They’ve done it before. They have embarrassed my embrace of fatalism numerous times.
  12. Frankie All-Star too
  13. To the Tigers credit, they do not spend a lot of time zeroing in only on hot young babes in the stands.
  14. But there’s two more chances, especially if we can avoid allowing more runs.
  15. I mean, winning the series at home against a top team like the Rays is nothing to be ashamed of. But it feels a bit like being pantsed in the locker room, kicked out the door, and the cheerleaders are laughing at you. We had good reason to think we could win this game.
  16. Never say never because these guys have surprised us so many times, but I get the feeling that might’ve been our last best shot. We’ll see.
  17. Given this game, that was not entirely unpredictable.
  18. Bases loaded for Riley Greene…
  19. Not fair not fair the Rays are acting like they want win this game bringing in different pitchers and stuff when it looks like the guy isn’t even melting down giving up five hits in a row. Is this a thing?
  20. I know there’s a certain strategy to how you use your pen, but it just seems that leaving Lee out there that long is a miscalculation. Is no one else available?
  21. Zach gets a double at least.
  22. I switched over to the radio feed and I see on the screen they’re talking about their favorite aquatic animals.
  23. No, it was just a weak first pitch ground out.
  24. I’m sorry to say it, but I’m expecting Riley to strike out. I hope he proves me wrong.
