Does anyone have a link for a stream for this game? I am a lucky xfinity customer so I can't access FOX...

unless it's my imagination, 2026 Montero seems to be kicking the crap out of 2025 Montero.

Indeed.

[casimir]

Some loud shots off of Rocker early on.

[casimir]

So, didn’t like the Torres send, but now that I think about it, that throw was a laser.  It was off to the 1B side, Jansen did make a good stretch to the plate after catching it.  I don’t know, though.  Cold day, Torres ain’t fleet of foot.  But I’m sitting on the couch and I don’t see what Cora sees.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

McGonigle singles Pérez in. 4-0

[casimir]

McGonigle keeps building his case for MVP.

[Tigermojo]

We've got the runs!

[casimir]

17 for 17 SB vs Rocker in his career?  Wowza.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Rocker isn't doing much to hold runners, and Jansen can't get a handle on the ball when a Tiger steals.

and this leads to another single-steal-single combo for a run, this time Gleyber knocking in McGonigle.

That’s a pro move by Keith.  Rocker clearly ain’t got to today.  Quantrill up in the bullpen.  End the inning, give Texas a false sense of where things are, and then rip another crooked number off of him in the next inning before he’s replaced.

[casimir]

A little bit of trouble there, but Montero at 40 pitches through 3.  5 run lead, bullpen game tomorrow.  Eat some innings, kid.

I don’t know is he hurt?

that's what I'm wondering. just heard Dan say at the start of the inning that Lee was in and Gleyber was out, but he didn't say why.

[casimir]

Not sure on the TV either.

[Dan Gilmore]

Watching Torres run from second and get thrown out at home he wasn’t moving that fast.

I'm...not sure I'd take that as a sign of anything.

[casimir]

One of the aspects that I like about baseball is the relationship between catchers and home plate umpires.  They take care of each other.  Jansen takes one off of the mask.  The home plate umpire delays the action a bit by wandering out from his post.  Upon his return to behind Jansen, after they’ve communicated and Jansen is ready to go, a polite tap by Blue on Jansen’s shoulder.

I just realized because this is on FOX I won’t be able to watch it because I live “Out West“ where everybody and I mean everybody on earth simply love love love love love loves the Los Angeles Dodgers. Not.

Fortunately, I have a social function tonight that precludes following this game very closely anyway so good luck to you all.

Looks like most of the country is in the same boat. Fox has no love for our kitties.

I live too far from Detroit to get Fox over the air without a lot of trouble. And I don’t subscribe to anything that includes Fox. So I don’t have access unless someone else logs into my tv. 
 

However, I can watch the dodgers on FOX broadcast just fine via mlb.tv. I’m watching McGreevy pitch to pages right now. They did away with the weird Fox national blackout thing for the game being shown outside of your market. So the Tigers should be available to you via mlb.tv.

Agreed...he seems more consistent. He's still kinda young.

[Dan Gilmore]

Yep, I’m watching on MLB out here in Oregon.

Montero works out of the two on nobody outs jam. The knuckle curve helped.
