WOW!

 

Tony G with a nice play to get over there, then a tough pick and a tough running throw to get the guy by 3 steps.  That was pretty!

That was very pretty. Jose would of 4 hopped that.

 

Man, that is the second straight game Frank has looked horrible recognizing the breaking ball.

 

Magglio ripped a single, keeping his hitting streak going. Maggs has had a great approach at the plate.

VERY fast and effective inning for Billy.

 

If need-be, he'd be available for the 11th, as he only threw 7 pitches.  Nice job!

He's got an ERA of around 3 this month.

I'd pitch him another inning. Then you turn it over to Glover who would be asked to go 4 innings or so max if he can keep going and the game keeps going.

 

But you still got to go one inning at a time. Right now I'd be very tempted for a hit and run. Very easy to steal on a knuckleballer and generally it is easy to make contact.

In this situation you have to be real tempted to keep out of the double play, but you can't put a hit and run on with 2 on. A double steal wouldn't be a horrible call with good speed on both parts of the plate, but do you want to chance getting gunned down.

Interesting stats from the Tigers cast.

 

Tig's bullpen fourth best ERA in AL.

Konerko has now hit into Team Leading 11th DP of the year.

Tigers in May 9-12, Sox, 7-15.

Haven't the Sox hit into the most double plays this season and isn't Konerko the major league leader in that category.
