Get some triples. Score more than the Royals! 

[CaliforniaDreaming]

Really must win this game

[tiger2022]

They need to win 1 of the 3 games in this series.  If they can pull that off they still have 7.5 game lead and that should be more than enough at this point.

Paddack and Flaherty do not inspire confidence.  And when Skubal pitches, he goes up against Wacha, who is a tough nut to crack.

The tedium of seeming mediocrity or worse is really starting to wear on me.

Speaking of Skubal, he is fortunate that grand slam didn't count as ER. Crochet is very close to him now in the CY chase.

I didn't even notice that they were unearned. I guess that's good, but I would rather they won. When Skubal loses a game, our odds of a losing streak skyrocket.

I agree

[Tigermojo]

Dan Dickerson's mom is not well so he will be away for a few days.

[GalagaGuy]

Dan is away for personal reasons and Jason is doing the college football game on Fox.  Who are the Tigers using for play by play this weekend?  

[IdahoBert]

It would be really nice to score some runs in the first inning and not to allow several in the first inning to the Royals.

Paul Severino on TV, as you may have seen in the graphic that popped up. radio I assume is Greg Gania or Dan Hasty.

[Tigermojo]

Make him pay Wenceel.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

blah

[IdahoBert]

Tigers load the bases, but do not score. 

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

ugh

[Sports_Freak]

Losing streak and Paddack on the mound. Yeah...

[chasfh]

Without either Benetti or Dan, it is a very bland broadcast on both sides of the spectrum. The kind of thing many franchises have to withstand every day for years.

[monkeytargets39]

No Dan is always rough.  Prayers for his mother—Tiger nation is pulling for her!

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

2 first-inning homers

[Edman85]

Shades of Jarrod Washburn's disastrous Tigers stretch here with Paddack.

[chasfh]

God, please tell me we’re not going into another 1-12 stretch.

[Tigermojo]

Is batting practice almost over? When does the game start?

[CMRivdogs]

Royals picking up where they left off last weekend

[GalagaGuy]

Paddack imploding tonight followed by Flaherty doing the same tomorrow and then the team scoring no runs for Skubal.  Royals about to be 5.5 games behind by the end of the weekend.
