Another ALDS game 5. May it end better than last year's edition for the Tigers!

Tigers game got a lot more fun since I left home to come to work.

Should we start thinking about saving runs to back up Skubal on Friday?

6 outs to game 5. Get it done bullpen!

So Comerica Bank just got bought by Fifth Third Bank. And the naming rights for Comerica Park are up in a couple of years. Wonder if the Tigers home stadium is getting a name change some time soon?

well, shit....

One way to look at it, though, we were hoping to take one game in Seattle, and we took one game in Seattle, so the Tigers are right where we were hoping they'd be.

Would have been nice to have stolen both, but the Tigers can still finish this off at home.

He could’ve fought, but he faked bone spurs. So someone else had to go in his place - most likely a working class kid whose daddy couldn’t afford to bribe a doctor. Now he’s talking shit about how it should’ve been fought.

Judge Diane Goodstein crossed the Trump administration last month. Yesterday, her home burned, her husband was injured and it's being investigated for arson.

So of course it's the .191 hitter that gets to Skubal.

Didn't he walk a sub mendoza line hitter in that Cleveland gem, too?

Ahtrapsm @ahtrapsm.bsky.social · 3d

Oh huh, Castillo still has a no hitter going. Let's remedy that, shall we, Tigers?

Tarik had to their a decent few pitches in that inning too. Hopefully the second will be a little more efficient.

If any other president said something like this in a speech to a military academy, it would be a massive scandal. Instead, it isn’t among the ten most dangerous things he’s done this week.
