After the Tigers charged back and had the second game in hand yesterday, the Dark Angel of Regression spread her wings to spoil the celebration.

I hope her more amiable sister, the Bright Angel of Moderately Good Fortune slowly wafts down from the heavens like a feather landing gently on a cotton ball to go correct yesterday‘s outrageous maleficence.

Irvin has given up 13 runs in his last 15 2/3 innings. I like our chances.

I was initially looking forward to this as one of those Thursday afternoon early start getaway games but it’s not one of those. I suppose that after a doubleheader yesterday, even though it was unplanned, this is probably a good thing.

I wish no lasting ill fortune on any athlete and I hope his deficiencies continue through today and after then I wish him only the best.

when the TIgers lose I get mad and don't want to talk to any of you morans.

When they win I want to have a Backyard BBQ with sprinklers, jello, and such and such.

You ARE the Poet Lauriat of Motownforums.  That's almost as good as being the moderator.  You have the ability to declare things poetic or unpoetic.  Banning for lack of flow in your wisdoms.

So what do you do the day after they’ve done both?  Jello fighting with a silent post game platter of ribs?

When the Tigers lose, I’m pretty much the same, even though I come here when I’m feeling bad I tend to sulk in the corner like a teenager and mumble things like “you just wouldn’t understand.”

Aww, shucks…..😗

I’ll be honest.  The way this season is going, a loss doesn’t move me much.  Last night sucked, but it happens, it just ain’t happened much to the Tigers this season.

The other thing is, they just have not been in much of a slump and are in complete control of the division.  I’d probably live and die harder if they were in danger of the division lead.

If they lose today, there’s another game tomorrow.  That’s kind of how I’ve looked at it this season.

As for winning and losing.   I wake up each morning thinking about the night before.  A little more philosophical during the great years than the crap years (I remember thinking in 1989 when it was all going to crap...but we have Greg Gohr coming), but each day starts with the understanding of the Tiger's place in the Universe and why that matters.

I was hoping Skubal would pitch Saturday on the Fox game of the week.

Astros lose to Colorado. The Tigers' American League lead is back up to 2.0 games.

Great at-bat by Torkelson.

Zach the hit machine

Poor Nationals starters.

The game is on WJBK in Detroit. The FF and RW works so much better.

Ump sucks
