I always hated that game.
Maybe Garcia can go yard here and we can all curse Peralta's name.

Yeah....about that. I don't think we'll be doing that anytime soon if Iggy keeps doing that.
Iggy gonna Iggy.

Indians lose, for what it is worth. KC will probably be behind you at the end of the night. Weird.

Let's see... rip off 12 straight (including a few close games) and then drop 4 of 5. A win is needed, even if Leyland rolls out the B squad.
Miggy's hurt, Infante is 69%, Avila's gone until ? and the Peralta thing didn't appear to stunt the team too much until this little blip...
just the same, losing to the Sox is almost on par to losing to Miami or Houston. Yeesh.
One constant that is bothering me (besides the bullpen)... extra inning games. 5-11 this season.
So, we can hope to avoid two things in the playoffs: the Angels and extra innings.
At least we have 15 of the next 18 at home after today.

We'll take it.
As it stands, a 6 game lead on the Tribe and 7.5 ahead of KC going into the five game series with the Royals. 70-49, 2nd best record in the AL (Boston is 72-50) which may turn out to be important.
43 games left... at this point (and w/o) looking at the schedule... is it safe to say that the Tigers *should* win 92+ games? Basically playing .500 the rest of the way will do that.
I am concerned about two things: Miggy getting healthy and our bullpen entering the playoffs. Our rotation should keep us in most games, but I doubt that our bullpen can match any opponent we may see in the playoffs. (I don't think this is a huge leap that they will be there... right?)
The offense is what it is, but it would be nice to get our left handed bats going.
6-4 final.
This one was straight out of the Todd Jones Save Manual.
