Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 2 - The Charlie Gehringer version
Just saw a couple of games in Lakeland. When I first got there the big dogs were all taking BP. Cabrera, Boesch, Young, and Fielder all at once. That was very impressive.Dirks came up and he is 6 ft tall but looked like a dwarf.
Tigers do look good. Cabrera had several balls hit to him at third. He fielded all of them and had trouble getting the ball out of his glove to throw. No errors though. I think he will make the routine play but the exceptional play, no. Kelly made two exceptional plays, one at third and one at first. He was impressive. and so was Patterson, with two homers off Roy halliday, also Pilkonen was very impressive. He threw no slower than 96 and threw strikes. Reminded me of verlander a lot in his motion and way he throws. On the other hand, pauley was terrible and might not make the club. Quinten Berry got picked off but the ump missed the call. He was good, but I think he will be in Toledo. Inge was good. played second well and hit well against both righty's and lefty's. Fielder did not have a hit in either game, but man, he swung harrrrd.! There were a bunch of MTU students sitting in front of me on friday. they were well behaved and classy, as opposed to typically drunk.None of them had been to a hockey game all year. Not impressed with castellanos, strieby or anyone else really.
