PeavyTime Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Leyland let down his team there. They don't give up, make a comeback and he puts in a bum to pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Casper Wells' first career homer. Â The Twins have given the Tigers about 5 "unearned/sloppy" runs this series, but Verlander/Rhymes messed up that double play and I almost gave up. Â Then almost gave up again. Â This will really really suck if the Tigers don't win after coming back to tie it twice. It was bad enough that Baker was knocked out with a sore elbow, Verlander was pitching with a 2-0 lead. Â Cabrera has sucked A-S this series....had the bases loaded with no outs in the first and struck out and they only scored one. And I think there's a rule that the Twins automatically score when they lead off the 7th/8th/9th with a walk or single. Â 4 homers for the Tigers tonight on a night the ball shouldn't be carrying...even with the Twins playing sloppy baseball, they're still not far off from three one-run victories, despite everything.

caulfield12 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Pretty amazing to hit a ball oppo right down the RF line over that 23 foot wall. Â Not easy to do. Â Where did this come from?

SoxAce Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Typical Twins-like game for us as sox fans. They either get the lead, somehow the other team ties it, then they win it in the 9th/extras or the other team is leading, and the Twins come back late to win it. Not holding my breath on the Tigers winning this one, but I'll stay optimistic. Hey, maybe they are paying us back when we beat them to force a game 163 against the Twins last season. Miggy was my MVP a week ago (sorry Josh, he was beating you in every statistical category minus average, teams be damned). Now, he is quickly costing himself that award in my eyes at least.

Â Not to mention the fact that Cabrera mysteriously disappeared due to "biceps tendonitis" and yet Hamilton's playing with two cortisone shots in his knee in the last 30 days. Â Who do you think the voters will pick, especially with how the last week went down for the Tigers and Cabrera in 2009? Â And the Rangers are in first, the Tigers are the definition of underachieving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 What's funny is the Tigers and Sox will have identical 5-10 records against MINN this season. Â There's your division, right there. Â But losing 8/9 at that park, the Tigers and White Sox both are feeling the Piranha Jinx up there...and this includes the 2006/09 Twins chasing down the Tigers from seemingly insurmountable division leads.

caulfield12 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Don't throw this kid Valencia a FB. Â 8/11 this series, hitting .341 and the Tigers have a guy out there with an 8.84 ERA against him. Â And he's supposed to have big-time power in batting practice but it hasn't showed up yet in game situations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally if the final week of the season has zero meaning to your team, you should not be in the running for MVP. Â It was just amazing to me the freak numbers that man was putting up with no protection, lots of injuries, and that team as bad as they've been not to mention the respect he gets with his IBB. He was near triple crown status just a week ago. (I thought he was going to catch Josh in average, only Bautista and his freak year in homers is what Miggy probably would not catch) I would say now it's Hamiltons to lose, but now Konerko is more of an MVP candidate/runner up than Cabrera.

caulfield12 Posted September 3, 2010 Share Posted September 3, 2010 Well, that would have been a walk-off homer at the HHH. Â and Valencia was a 19th round draft pick, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
