The Tigers got started early yesterday, only to be Pelfried shortly thereafter. But the bats came through again and the bullpen held it together just enough to eek out a win and guaranty a series victory. A sweep would be icing on the cake, but I like our chances with the pitching matchup.
Baseball-Reference game preview here.
1. Ian Kinsler, 2B
2. Jose Iglesias, SS
3. Miguel Cabrera, 1B
4. Victor Martinez, DH
5. Nick Castellanos, 3B
6. Justin Upton, LF
7. Mike Aviles, RF
8. James McCann, C
9. Tyler Collins, CF
We need Maybin and Martinez back, hurry up guys.
Watching on Gameday…Upton just got pitched 5 balls well off the plate….CB Buckner called 3 of them strikes..that
s Buckner for you!
Sox got the Finger!
Is Fulmer showing off?
Atta boy ..Brad ..better too late then never!!…
I can’t believe Rondon. Now let’s get some runs and complete the sweep.
Miggy…..coming around!!!!!! Atta boy!!!
What I like about Miggy’s recent work is the power to right is back.
Miggy and Victor finally the big hitters…hit big!…lets close this out!
Brad..+1 using Wilson to pitch to three tough lefties in the ninth..I would have sent Frankie out there.
Enjoy the off day tomorrow. This takes some sting away from that split with the othet Sox team….nice pitching this series…timely hitting….4.5 and closing!!…
Miggy, Victor warming up, JD, Zim, Norris coming in….good days ahead , boys!….
KRod was not available. Personal matter they say. Still a very god job by the pen for the whole series, save Alex Wilson last night (not all his fault either)
Magnificent series, and Cleveland is folding like a cheap accordion!
Donkey DFA’D by Miami so that they can reinstate D. Gordon after PED suspension. Guy can’t get a break…
Someone will pick him up. He can play all 9 spots well on D…thats worth something.
He went 3-for-5 with a triple and 2 RBI his last game, that’s not a bad way to go out.
Rumor has it that Ichario is on the block…perhaps that will make room for Donkel?
