Detroit Tigers, 2009, Part III: How long does it take for Leyland to screw this up?

You do realize that we're going to die here in the 9th, right.

Leyland had to go get Lyon. He's spent. Only problem is, I'd prefer Rodney to start with clean basepaths so that he's got room to scare the hell out of us.

Yes, which is why I suggest muting the TV and playing this...

I spoke one batter too early. Rodney is going to have to face Mauer, one way or another.

CODE RED. CODE RED. RODNEY IN A NON-SAVE SITUATION. I REPEAT, RODNEY IN A NON-SAVE SITUATION.a

ETA: It is a save situation. Never mind. Still might not matter.

With Gomez behind Mauer no way Joe sees a strike.

You don't have the floor quite yet.

Pretty soon.

And it is not a save situation. We don't have the lead.

Derp.

I say he should get one anyway for that. :p

Man... they really should just let the Rangers play in New York tomorrow. Obviously neither of these teams want it.

Well, at least we don't have the watch the "you can die now, daddy" commercial. Instead we get the 14 year old daughter telling her dad his arteries are falling apart.

It was all over Detroit tv last night. He basically said, in the locker room, that the Twins will win. Guaranteed.

Well, it started out poorly for him, but his team may bail him out yet. At least the 150 MM man showed up. Good for Mags and Porcello, too.

Sure, but New York doesn't want Texas when it can feast on one of these two.

We're going to pinch hit now??

That did catch a pantleg. Barely.

... they're probably falling apart because he was constantly p*ssed off about DL trying to pick up his daughter outside the house.

And you shouldn't count that as being hit by a pitch. To be hit by a pitch, the criteria should be the player is in blinding pain.

Re: Detroit Tigers, 2009, Part III: How long does it take for Leyland to screw this up?

Mr. Detroit, Brandon Inge? I'm gonna go puke in a bucket.

5-4. It's up to Rodney and Co. now. Hang on to your ***.

Okay, maybe Inge wants it. Game-saving defensive play in the 9th followed by the potential game-winning double in the 10th.

Re: Detroit Tigers, 2009, Part III: How long does it take for Leyland to screw this up?

Inge finds the nut the blind squirrel dropped. The HBP is big now.

Now it is roller coaster time.

If it's all the same to you, let's get Verlander up in the bullpen, just in case.
