Runs!

Gonna need about 12 more to make this Flaherty/De Jesus proof.

[Dan Gilmore]

I could get used to this (minus the lame bullpen). 

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

even Shorty's hitting them to the track.

[IdahoBert]

Short doubles i’m liking this team again!

[Sports_Freak]

Ahhhh...crow for dinner...

[Tigermojo]

[monkeytargets39]

We can’t waste a Zach Short double.  Drive him in.

FLYING V CASHES IN

[Edman85]

Reading the negativity spewed about today's lineup right now is fun.

[IdahoBert]

Matty doubles in Short. 5-0 almost there…

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Vierling is halfway to the cycle with an RBI double, and the Tigers are ~83.3% of the way to a Bert.

You mean they’re not being shut out? 😀

[Tigermojo]

Clearly our calls to fire Hinch/Harris and release everyone are finally paying off. Score runs dummies or else...

[IdahoBert]

If the Tigers played in a crappy indoor stadium, we could enjoy games like this all the time!

[IdahoBert]

I hope Flaherty stays sharp… < ducks >

[monkeytargets39]

Why is Jones not getting pinch hit for there?

[IdahoBert]

Why is Jones still in there when he’s now facing a right handed pitcher? I thought we were “playing the numbers.”

Great minds think alike

[RatkoVarda]

Hinch is an idiot. NOW he has them score runs? where was that in May?

[Edman85]

Jones probably hitting because it's 5-0. Not to say that can't change quickly, but the Rays do have three LHP in the pen, so it's nice to have Jones in there later if it does tighten up.

[Tenacious D]

Warm weather team?

Reason is a good antidote to simplistic complaining. But we do enjoy complaining around here. 😉

[Tigermojo]

No more challenges for the Rays.

[GalagaGuy]

JV with a 1-2-3 first inning with a couple K's.
