OK, the intro thing since many are checking out BlueSky!

Hi, I’m Ian. I write for Yahoo Sports, the latest stop in 15-plus years in media, covering sports, media & pop culture. I enjoy sports (Detroit teams, especially), movies, TV, comic books & politics (I’m a Democrat).

Nice recovery from Zack McKinstry getting picked off first base!

Brent Maguire @bmags94.bsky.social · 3h

Wow. Javier Báez pads the Tigers lead with a two-run homer.

What a switch this game has seen since the fifth inning.

Ian Casselberry @iancass.bsky.social · 3h

Analysis: #Tigers do much better when they don't hit the ball to Josh Naylor.

Big Dingler?

Also, thanks to Randy Arozarena for the misplay in left field

Jason Beck @jasonbeck.bsky.social · 3h

Dingler Double doesn't have the same ring to it, but it gets the Tigers on the board, chases Bryce Miller and starts the chess match in earnest. 3-1 M's in 5th.

OK, I looked up from my laptop. I turned off my podcast. Let's go, #Tigers

This rain delay might be a good time to locate FS2 on your cable or streaming service just in case. Just saying.

I had Fox Weather on standby via Roku, just in case

Is FS2 about to be activated?

… Just checked to make sure it’s on YouTube TV.

With the start of the #Mariners' ALDS Game 3 at Detroit delayed by rain, The Athletic's Andrew Marchand reports that the TV broadcast would move from FS1 to FS2 if it overlaps with the Blue Jays-Yankees ALDS Game 3 set to start at 5 p.m.

Crazy to think it’s been that long since the Tigers played at home.

Jason Beck @jasonbeck.bsky.social · 1d

Last time Tigers took the field at Comerica Park, they were hearing boos on their way off amidst their division collapse. 16 days later, they return with a path to the ALCS.

“To be honest, I feel like we've always seen ourselves in this position. How we got here is a little muddy.”

Ah, there are 2 more episodes. Feels like the finale could be more epilogue then…

Ian Casselberry @iancass.bsky.social · 2d

Great episode of TASK, building to a hopefully strong end. Gotta wait a week for it!

A.J. Pierzynski with a hell of a call there, saying Spencer Torkelson needed to hit the ball to right field!

5 teams have come back from double digits down to win this week (Commanders, Panthers, Titans, Broncos, Saints). That's 1 shy of the NFL record for a single week last done in Week 13 of the 2013 season

OK, Chase has made 2 great TD catches

Ian Casselberry @iancass.bsky.social · 3d

Daryl Johnston just mentioned it on the FOX broadcast, but as spectacular as Ja'Marr Chase is, the Lions are grateful that the Bengals drafted him instead of Penei Sewell 🙏

Bengals defense is keeping them in this game. #Lions should have a bigger lead, especially with Cincinnati beating themselves with mistakes. But… yeah, that Arnold holding penalty was a killer.

Ahtrapsm @ahtrapsm.bsky.social · 3d

Totally blame that Bengals FG on Terrion Arnold. It should have been 16-0 and Lions ball to make it an even bigger lead at halftime. But instead, the Bengals get a lifeline, and hey get the ball to start the second half.

In all seriousness, publishers are going to have to figure out how to market books in the post-social-media landscape. That should be an implicit part of their job. What authors/artists can do on their own is increasingly limited and siloed.
