Holton loads the bases no outs

Runners on first and third no outs it’s getting dicey…

AJ pulls Jack for Holton after a lead off single in the 7th. Not sure why they sent him out there anyway maybe they just wanted to give Holton more time to warm up.

Oh wow Flaherty’s back out there

Showed Holton in the pen just now.

I wish Matty could remember how to hit the ball.

Flaherty K’s Harper. Ends the inning with a fly to Vierling in center. 89 pitches six innings. I didn’t see if he got the handshake or not.

3-0 Tigers after 5 frames in the city of brotherly love.

Glad the no-hitter is over. Let’s just pitch a good game. A winning game.

More runs please.

My son saw Kyle Schwarber hit a home run in his first professional at bat with the Boise Hawks in the NWL in 2014. He went to the game with friends because I had to work that night.

Jack is pitching a good game.

Gleyber admired his work.

Gleyber Weavers it!

Gleyber long gone

You’re right that’s it. It’s the weird contrast.

The centerfield camera when it’s focused on the pitcher, the pitchers hat has an orange glow on it

Javy singles

Wenceel singles!

Captain Jack is dealing!

That’s a good deal. I got it a few days before Mother’s Day for half price and the season was clearly not even half over.

Hey, this is a game thread not a political thread.

I wonder if this also means that they’re not looking for guys who are simply mercenaries and looking for the biggest payday possible. I’m just thinking out loud because the general assumption is that players are only motivated by the largest paycheck. I wonder if this could say something about how interested the Tigers are in signing guys to seven year $50 million a year contracts either in free agency or to keep existing players.

Scott said in a clip I hadn’t seen yet that the Tigers really like guys who are with them “for the right reasons.” I presume that means buying into the ethos and culture of the organization. I guess it could mean something else but that seems like the more obvious choice.

Finally.
