  1. A cloudy 45° for both games. New York has had almost 2 inches of rain in the last 24 hours. Since I’ve lived in arid desert regions for the last 50+ years that’s 15% to 20% of all the precipitation I’m used to seeing in a whole year. Wow.
  2. I think the Tigers will win both ends of this doubleheader tomorrow, and I predict that Manning will toss 7 innings of no-hit ball and be pulled after 93 pitches.
  3. High winds, flood warnings, oh my!
  4. Was it Todd Jones who donned a wig and ran the bases during one of those postseason games with the Yankees that was momentarily in abeyance? I found the photo. This is my favorite rain delay photo ever.
  5. Maybe the game will get canceled early and Chris will send the whole team to a Broadway show.
  6. I think I’m getting over this guy on second base in an extra innings thing if they can score 5 runs every time.
  7. Hello DL? It’s not like any of these guys are Mickey Lolich anymore.
  8. In the first inning, he was pitching so tightly inside I thought he was trying to do circumcisions.
  9. It’s a shame the Tigers aren’t playing in Kansas City tonight. There’s a tornado warning for KC until 11 PM central time. Worrying about a tornado would be a nice change of pace.
  10. When I hear the word “New York“ I think of the Yankees and reach for my revolver. My mistake. It’s a reflex.
  11. Are the Yankees going to play dirty tricks like they did during the playoffs against us years ago because of the rain? Are they going to make our players strip down naked and run the bases in the rain and snap their butts with a towel like they did last time? That was poor sportsmanship on their part. I’m glad we beat them.
  12. I feel like the accumulated toxins from the past are being flushed out of my system in a Gwyneth Paltrow sort of way.
  13. This is one of the best endorphin rushes I’ve had in a long time.
  14. That’s kind of you. I’ve been AWOL for a while, but I’m trying to get over my bad attitude so I might be popping in more often than I have.
  15. I’ve been hanging out in different iterations of this place for 20 years. Thank you everyone — especially Scoot — for making it possible and delightful.
  16. Tork and Baez both did well hitting in the split squad games today against the Yankees and the Blue Jays, each of which the Tigers won by scoring 10 runs or more. I hope the alchemy of the analytic synergy being produced this spring extends into the regular season.
  17. It looks like Mize was able to get through 59 pitches and his arm didn’t fall off.
