7/9/25 5:10PM Rays @ Tigers

[IdahoBert]

No, it was just a weak first pitch ground out. 

[IdahoBert]

I switched over to the radio feed and I see on the screen they’re talking about their favorite aquatic animals. 

[IdahoBert]

Zach gets a double at least. 

[holygoat]

ALL STAR Zach doing Zach sh*t.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

why is Chase Lee still pitching?

[Dan Gilmore]

Not Chase Lee’s day. 

[holygoat]

AJ is clearly saving his pen for some reason tonight.

[Toddwert]

zach thats guy that doesnt get the memo that the game is suppose to be  over lol

[IdahoBert]

I know there’s a certain strategy to how you use your pen, but it just seems that leaving Lee out there that long is a miscalculation. Is no one else available?

[IdahoBert]

Enns.

I’m sorry to say it, but I’m expecting Riley to strike out. I hope he proves me wrong.

Riley is not in a good place recently. He's hit a couple of HRs but otherwise is hitting about a buck fifty for July

some times i wonder if Hinch is just. stubborn ... the pitch change is suppose to work 

[Motor City Sonics]

This is going to be such an exciting comeback victory.   

[IdahoBert]

Not fair not fair the Rays are acting like they want win this game bringing in different pitchers and stuff when it looks like the guy isn’t even melting down giving up five hits in a row. Is this a thing?

[IdahoBert]

Bases loaded for Riley Greene…

Given this game, that was not entirely unpredictable. 

[Adullin]

F u ump robot strike zones can't get here soo enough. 

[IdahoBert]

Never say never because these guys have surprised us so many times, but I get the feeling that might’ve been our last best shot. We’ll see. 

[RandyMarsh]

I don't blame Hinch cause it's hard to pinch hit for your starts young player but tactically it probably would've been better to use Javy there against the LH. 

[IdahoBert]

I mean, winning the series at home against a top team like the Rays is nothing to be ashamed of. But it feels a bit like being pantsed in the locker room, kicked out the door, and the cheerleaders are laughing at you. We had good reason to think we could win this game.

I only watched it when it happened so I may be remembering it wrong but from memory that looks alike Ichiro against Verlander in the All Star Game there in 07 I believe.  A similar bounce led to Ichiro walking in for the inside the park hr.

You're definitely misremembering something.

Verlander and Ichiro were both on the AL team.

[IdahoBert]

But there’s two more chances, especially if we can avoid allowing more runs.

Not at . As mentioned by @gehringer_2, Riley has basically been Jake Rogers for a while now.  To be honest, and I hope to be proven totally wrong by history, even when Riley was going good, I still hadn’t gotten to the point where I felt he was a proven “star”. To me he’s so far been a proven mlb starter, like  B, not an A.

[IdahoBert]

To the Tigers credit, they do not spend a lot of time zeroing in only on hot young babes in the stands. 

[IdahoBert]

Frankie All-Star too
