I’m petty sure Jason has been primarily if not exclusively a TV guy for most of his career. It’s a different skillset and some never make the adjustment.
 

I remember when ESPN Radio would let Chris Berman do “play-by-play” for at least one postseason series every year and be completely useless at it.

He does radio for college basketball.

It was a 1-2 count when Torres went. It was very obviously a straight steal, he just had a bad jump.

Yeah, OK. One of the slowest Tigers attempting a steal and was out by 20 feet. I would say it was an obvious missed hit and run sign but we'll never know unless Hinch is asked about it

Is Bert sleeping thru a Tigers win? Don't wake him up...🤣🤣

I’ve been busy today and I didn’t realize the game started so darn early. If they pull Skubal for our porous bullpen, I’m going to scream. I might even be pushed over the edge and go on a six state crime spree, a robbin’ and a shootin.’

The Tigers send the runners on steals with two outs regularly. And because Hunch is not an incompetent moron we can safely assume he did not call a hit and run on a 1-2 count when the pitcher is likely going to try and get Greene to chase a pitch.

Torres has 4 SB on the year BTW, so it's incredibly asinine to act like they would never send him.

Also, the Tigers would rather have Torrest thrown out stealing than have Riley batting in a 1-2 count with 2 outs.

All time Madduxes (<100 pitch complete game shutouts) with at least 11 K's:

 

Wait, so Maddux never got a Maddux?

Throw in a province or two to make your spree truly epic and internationally exotic.

A Maddux is just a complete game with under 100 pitches. That list is of pitchers who did that with 11+ Ks.

I don't remember the Tigers trying a straight steal with one of our slowest runners. But OK, while I don't agree with it, I see your opinion. Like I said, we'll ll never know unless they're asked.

Well, I don't wanna say you're bad luck but....it's good luck if you miss a game and the Tigers win.
