Wow, the Dodgers pitching really sucks compared to ours:

This is utterly amazing. I suppose it’s happened before, but it’s pretty much new to me in terms of paying attention game by game, pitch by pitch.

They all “stayed within themselves“ and “pitched to the score“ so they were able to log more innings and start more games. There’s no way to compare the different eras.

The statement “I’m tired“ made me wonder about Mickey Lolich’s high-pitch totals “back in the day“ so I looked it up and this is what Google AI gobbledygook told me. It told me that he pitched for the Detroit Tigers against the Detroit Tigers: AI Overview Mickey Lolich threw a total of 170 pitches in a single game, an 11-inning complete game, on Father's Day in 1974. The game was played at Tiger Stadium against the Detroit Tigers. Lolich also threw an 11-inning complete game, with the Tigers winning the game in a walk-off.

Tomorrow’s the 40th game and I am here to say “so what!“ As Gypsy Rose Lee once noted, “It’s not how you start but how you finish that matters.” The Tigers finished strong last year and have started strong this year and that’s why we’re justified in our optimism, and it has nothing to do with any arbitrary number of games. End of rant.

I don’t remember being this bad last year I think with this new TV deal they just have less money to play with and they do it on the cheap.

It was like pulling teeth without anesthetic to get MLB to see the value in getting the most at bats possible for your best hitters.

God Tigers Live is awful. Five minute commercial breaks?

Just noticed that, a couple long at bats did us in

WIN

The cute girls with the signs telling the fans to stand up don’t seem to be getting the job done

Maybe the ball travels better west of the Mississippi River

Please score more runs

You are very good you are damn good.

I left my phone in the car when I went into the restaurant with my son and the restaurant was a Tony Roma’s. I remember it well because when I came out and it was a successful no hitter I was pretty happy.

I’ve never seen a four out inning

I followed one of JVs on my phone, but was at a restaurant with my son so that doesn’t count

that’s right I meant Galarraga

Good I hate no hitters. The first one I saw was Jack Morris‘s on TV and 84 against the White Sox and then the one for Sanchez that Joyce screwed up and the Turnbull one. That’s enough no hitters for one life.

Malloy gets a gift walk

He said four perfect innings

Don’t push it Skubal

The number two guy always had to be a Latino infielder who was 5‘10“ or less
