I give up. What does Beloit and Plouffe have in common?

They are both sounds made when you drop a quarter in the toilet.

Do you mean Bill White? He was a great straight man for goofy Phil RIzzuto back in the day.

Thanx for the catch. Good grief, Charlie B...

That Bud Light bottle/can thingy Rocco is sporting in the hot tub is really a microphone connected to Tingler's ear, just sayin

FO told him to get out there, get tossed more often, mix things up.

My question was in response to your statement. Having just turned the game on I was asking what happened which lead to his ejection.

Detroit, Plouffe, and "Damnit now I gotta go in after that."

 

FTFY

(Rocco was booted for arguing the precision pitcher wasn’t coming to a complete stop from the stretch)

Chirping from the dugout about noncalled balks, ump said "that's enough," Rocco told Tingler "Hold my Bud Light"

Tingler bet him $1,000 that he couldn't get tossed two games in a row.

Thanks!

Rocco, this moment: 

[Nine of twelve]

Castro ran that perfectly. Almost impossible to get close enough to second to advance on a drop but also close enough to first to get back after a catch.

[Robert Floren]

Bases loaded. no outs.  I'll take a medium fly ball.  Please no strikeout followed by double play.

[CRF]

I just love to see Det playing up to their potential. 

[Nine of twelve]

Good. Got out of the bases loaded/nobody out situation.

That's progress. We scored a run.
