Meh ...   Winnah!   If he's not here, you just gotta fill it in for him.   And one of 8 chicken dinnahs left to eat ... good thing I like chicken.

Buxton's first homer, Sano's first triple. Bet that tie doesn't last.

That last Joe Mauer DP reminded me of when I was having a career year in softball 30 years ago, batting near .500, then went zero-for-the-rest-of-the-season the last eight games, including a 6-4-3 DP in my last at-bat. Left me with a bad taste in my mouth to this day.

You haven't played since?

Wonder how Brian is enjoying the game.

Yes.

 

(I'm sorry, that was a "how" question)

 

Probably by watching it. With his eyes. But probably also with associated refreshments and company, even if they be strangers, or at least strange)

Santana has done his job today.  Now we need to pray for the pen to do OK.  Maybe this is a good low pressure situation to bring in Perkins.

Greenway runs a long interception back for a touchdown. Big flotilla surrounds him, cornerback beside him saying, "Just a little farther buddy, you can make it all the way..." That run back took about 20 seconds. Greenway's top speed: 12mph.

Who? What? You're speaking Greek to me with this.

Who is this Brian whereof you speak?

I think this is to what ChiTown is referring.

 

5. Tiger Stadium on Sunday -- I will be at Comerica on Sunday to watch the game. I'll be in South Bend on Saturday to watch a Notre Dame Football game so I was asking folks around here about the best route from South Bend to Detroit. One guy replied... Drive East until it smells like Crap and then North Until you step in it.

And i didn't note the photo with friday's game thread intro. Did he really hit his hand for the sake of the thread?

I wouldn't bring in Perk. To me it's not 'low leverage' enough.

Would they bring ESan back for the 8th? Or is someone warming up?

Santana has 104 pitches.

Buxton decreases the leverage.

Is it now?

I wouldn't bring Perk in at all in this game. Let's get out of Detroit and re-evaluate then. We have others in the pen that can be used and should be used.

That's not that big of a deal to me for him. It might be if he's pitched all season and we needed him for the post-season. But it's Tonkin. So, there it is.
