Detroit Tigers vs Texas Rangers

Watch:  Rangers - Bally Sports Southwest, Tigers - Bally Sports Detroit
Listen:  Rangers - 105.3 The Fan, KFLC 1270, Tigers - 97.1 The Ticket

[casimir]

Key stats for Incaviglia.  392 PAs over 2 seasons (2 separate stints in Detroit).  73 hits, 98 strikeouts, 11 home runs, 1 stolen base (pity that catcher) and 4 jersey numbers.

This made me look it up, and its crazy.  In seven games with the '98 Tigers, he wore both #20 and #37.  Then off to Houston.

Incaviglia and Tony Phillips were the guys who used to stuff little Prince Fielder into lockers and garbage cans.

Incaviglia was perfect for that kind of thing.  He had been doing it his whole life and he knew how to do it right.  Phillips was crazy, wanted to leave Prince in the locker over night.  Incaviglia told him: "This is just for fun.  You can't do that.  I know we did that to Scott Livingstone but Prince is just a kid."

The rationale for calling up Nevin is that they are facing a bunch of lefty starters...take that fwiw.

He’s not in the lineup tonight vs the LHP.

Is the whole game going to be at this angle? Is the camera on the roof?

[LongLiveMaroth]

Boyd and Homeruns, name a more iconic duo

[Motor City Sonics]

Enough of Hinch with this Lefty/Righty bullspit.   Give me someone that can create a spark

 

PARKER MEADOWS HITS LEFTIES BETTER THAN HE HITS RIGHTIES AND HE'S AN OUTFIELDER WHICH IS SOMETHING YOU DON'T HAVE ENOUGH OF NOW !!!!!!!!!!!  HE'S ALREADY ON THE 40 MAN AND HE'S BEEN HITTING IN JUNE.    

 

Schoop, Ibanez, McKinstry, Short and even Vierling can play 3B better than Maton did.    

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

well, no more Boyd homers today, I guess.

Ugh that is not ideal.

Whiplash from watching the homer.

Whenever we worry about needing spots in the lineup or the rotation, spots will open up due to performance and injury.

Wasn't this a night game?

It’s not a good thing, though, right?
