Melton is the starter.

Might as well sweep this series…

that year is the equivalent to the 1980 and 1985 seasons of SNL.  It was there but we don't really acknowledge it.  Between that stupid logo and the striping on the jerseys... hideous times.

3 hard hit balls to start.  1-0

[romad1]

I like this scoring runs and then keep scoring runs.  keep that up. 

[monkeytargets39]

STACHE POWER!!!

[romad1]

Jake!

[IdahoBert]

I could get used to this scoring early and often thing. I hope they can keep it up.

[IdahoBert]

Bases loaded one out in the top of the third do something dramatic Spencer!

[IdahoBert]

Well, I guess an SF and a run is something…

[romad1]

Halfway to a Bert...

BERT STATUS: ACHIEVED

[NorthWoods]

I'll state for the record that this Dingler fella is becoming immensely valuable.

[Sports_Freak]

Dingler is on fire!

[romad1]

we have Bert

[Dan Gilmore]

All the way to Bert!

[theroundsquare]

no way

[romad1]

Matt Vierling is as in the words of Gunnery Sgt Hartman "Born Again Hard"

[romad1]

Seriously...let's build a dome at 5th/3rd Bank Presents Comerica Park soonest!

[IdahoBert]

So, I stopped following this game for a few minutes to rewatch Roger Corman‘s brilliant Death Race 2000 and in my absence that Dingler fellow gets us to six runs…

[Sports_Freak]

I don't care if Tampa is struggling, the Tigers offense has woken up.  This is much more like I expected this season. And I cant believe it's just the return of a couple of guys from injury. Could it be? I sure hope this is the new normal.

Leave Melton in
