Must eliminate mental mistakes.

It's hot in Sacramento but give me one day game for my sleep schedule.

They need Meadows back to stabilize the defense and energy. They can carry his bat even if it's still bad.

I think some of the hitting chaos guys are probably running on fumes.

Mize has been in a slump. The Tigers need his 'A' stuff tonight

Or, his “A’s” stuff

Had the pleasure of helping a family of former Michiganders who had just moved to Idaho and still had Michigan license plates on their two vehicles parked one next to the other, one of which had the hood up with a dead battery, at one of our Trader Joe’s.

The dad is an engineer, and Micron Technology here is going through a big hiring phase and he’s a new hire. 

I found it amusing that a person who can understand the ins and outs of memory and storage products, including DRAM, NAND flash, and SSDs didn’t know how to jump the battery in his minivan. But he had all this rarified technical knowledge - at least in my eyes - but not practical knowledge like that.

It reminded me of another engineer I knew who was high up in the Micron hierarchy that I met here in 1988 who had a VHS tape player that always flashed the time 12:00 12:00 12:00… that he had apparently never figured out how to set. 

Those of you who are engineers or work with engineers might find this amusing or instructive in someway. I did

we're gonna get swept aren't we 😞

[casimir]

If the Tigers get swept, it’ll be a cute story about how West Sacramento took down the eventual World Series champions in an August series.

No pre-game?

Not on Fanduel either

[IdahoBert]

I’m re-watching Sisu for the eighth or ninth time because killing Nazis is more pleasurable than losing to the Sacramento Athletics. Good luck to all…

[Tigermojo]

It's on now.

Yeah, just saying there wasn't a pre-game show.

must not have been in the budget for tonight then.

[VegasTiger]

These guys are really annoying me.

[GalagaGuy]

Yep, this game is already over. 

[Tigeraholic1]

I am so glad this series is on so late…

[chasfh]

Tork got a triple??

[IdahoBert]

We should probably consider ourselves lucky to get out of that bottom of the first and down by only one run. 

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Tork triple thanks to a misplay. Butler blew it on the basepaths last night and in the OF tonight.

[chasfh]

Even with that triple, Tork has among the fewest triples of any current big leaguer with over 2,000 plate appearances.

[chasfh]

Ok for god’s sakes, what are we even doing here?

3-0. Tigers starting pitchers can't do anything.

Meanwhile the Jays, Red Sox, Yankees, Royals, Guardians, Astros and Mariners have all won already.
