Game 111: Thank You Sirs, May We Have Another?

Tigers:
Quintin Berry, CF
Andy Dirks, LF
Miguel Cabrera, DH
Prince Fielder, 1B
Brennan Boesch, RF
Jhonny Peralta, SS
Alex Avila, C

It has been raining in Detroit and the afternoon forecast calls for scattered thunderstorms. Since the Yankees are not scheduled to return to Detroit this season, the Tigers will more than likely make effort to get the game in.
Game time – if the weather cooperates – is 1:05 P.M.
UPDATED: The game will be starting at 1:15 P.M.

Ichiro is getting on my nerves. He better step it up.
I was hoping he was showing signs of life last evening, but do not let that make me the target of your prodigeous ire.
Ah, my ire’s pretty harmless. All bark, no point.
It seems like forever since we’ve seen Andrew Jones, and if Ichiro is taking his at bats, that’s a downgrade.
got a point. Well, both Raul and Andruw will have had a rest, and could be spiced in. I do hope Ichiro has a last hurrah.
The rumor’s of his life have been greatly exaggerated.
Boy did Swish’s liner sound delicious. Robbie’s, not so much this time. Come ooon, Hiroki.
I see the game’s started. Doesn’t look like I missed anything.
Do NOT throw a strike to Cabrera!!!!
Well, Miggy is right funkadelic.
ultra-funkadelic! Jeter’s covering!
In 39 games vs Yanks Cabrera is batting .359, slg % .761, 15 Hrs and 37 RBIs…..courtesy MLBN.
wowsers
Not to see baserunning mistakes by non-Yankees.
he thought he would catch Jete a-sleeping. Prob deked him.
I meant “Nice to see…”
ah, was wondering whereof
I forgot where i read it, but Oki has an ERA of 0.25 in day games this year.
diddly small, hardly worth mentioning.
Tex says he doesn’t see the seams spin as well in the daytime (glare, may not apply today), and Ichi relies on schpinnn! As does Mister Fister.
5 starts, 36.1 innings. More than 1/3 of his total.
That’s probably not statistically significant, but it’s impressive to me. That really could be something that helps him in a real way.
oops, Hiro relies on spin.
They said that on YES, too. I wonder how many games that covers.
The red hot Eric Chavez puts some overspin to carry that bouncer thru.
ah, cut the bum! and squash that Berry too. Thought he’d pulled it in.
I knew left-center field in Yankee Stadium was big, but I didn’t realize it was Ibanez-triple big.
Damn, if that was Gardner he probably could have had 5 bases.
I like that idea.
I must have gotten under Itchy’s skin. An RBI!
Gives a whole new meaning to acupuncture.
Ho ho, the mojo is back. Maybe.
Hiro has an affinity for a lead.
Oki-san not used to run support.
He got a 4 run lead a couple games back. Worked like a charm.
and I caught him smirking, coming off the mound. Then he noticed the camera, and straightened up.
10-1 when given a lead.
Good. Let’s give him a 10-1 lead.
Swish should stick with that flexibility of swing he showed there.
nice dp.
I hate the K/CS when it happens to the Yankees.
it can be annoying to wipe out a propectve hitter AND the runner on one pitch, yeah.
Going away, away, away to left for lefties.
Ichiro: A walk and an RBI in the same game. Maybe he IS coming around.
Ichi looked way off when he tried to sway-swing on that outside two-seam fader.
Ibanez fielded that ball fine. How does Ichi happen to be DH? Small injury, maybe?
Might be Girardi just cycling everyone through.
Kuroda gets pops from the big guys. Nice.
I see what you mean. Optimistic to dead in one pitch. And the hope for the runner to be on second is dashed.
Then Robbie will hit a double. Oh, well.
Live by the K/CS, die by the K/CS.
Flash warned accurately about avoiding the inside soft slider.
Come on, Kuroda, don’t fall apart now.
I simply cannot believe what the bottom of the Tiger batting order is doing to the Yanks in this series. They simply are not that good.
It’s frustrating.
They have to HIT!
[!]
Where did all the mojo go?
To De-troit, baby.
Ibanez is BRUTAL! BRUTAL!!
Raul did manage to butcher the hops on that ball, but Dirks had a double, unless it bounced true to him, and that’s all he got. Unlucky, more than blameful. Of course, Brett would have gotten there. Ichi? Probably.
Should have caught it. Jones would have had it, too.
Jones? Running sideways is against policy.
&%#@*&^%#*&^^$#^!!
You said it.
This would be a horrible loss.
Oki-san must get past Cabrera and give the Yanks time for their sleeping bats come back to life.
Girardi trying to stir things up, but I don’t think it’s having any effect on this group.
they showed Raul staring back at the umpire, like he had a beef. He didn’t wave it foul before it hit, surely.
NBC is reporting that during qualifying heats for the 4X 400 relay team, the first USA runner finished with a disappointing 46 sec for his lap because during the run he broke is fibula. USA qualified.
gave it his all, didn’t he?
I simply cannot imagine the pain he felt running on a broken leg.
As frustrating as it has been being a Yankee fan the past month, can you imagine being an Astro’s fan? Last 37 games they are 4-33.
Yeah, but at least you know you stink, and you only watch to see glimpses of hope for the future.
7th & 8th hitters for both teams have driven in 4 of the 5 runs today.
Is it me, or has it been forever since Jeter got a big hit late in a game?
yeah, I’d say he has excelled at leading off, and just done ok, pretty good in rallies. No game winners can I recall of late.
Well, well. Nice hit, Stewart.
Chases Mr. Fister. I like that guy. He gets leverage with all that lank, and his stuff is snakey.
We have a man on second to entice Derek.
Ooo, Dotel, he’s tricky.
So much for clutch hitting from Jeter & Swisher. The er guys are killing the Yanks today.
Damn, the 5 thru 9 hitters are 6 for 14 vs. Oki-san.
Are these umps serious right now?
that call looked poor. Maybe it’s their dog days. Bryce Harper wanted to eat a home plate ump’s head yesterday. The guy called him out twice, after that, on balls.
To paraphrase Woody Allen, the Yankees have their big gubs coming up.
Ha ha ha. I love Woody.
I would love the opportunity to see his stand-up act. Does he still do it occasionally in NY?
Blowfish comes through!
Now that it’s a tie game, how about winning it?
All hail the rally tissue!
Three ‘choos for the rally tissue!
Achoo! Achoo! Achoo!
Shin-soo, Shin-soo, Shin-soo
Guess Tex killed it. Pulled the trigger.
Oh, Chavez, how nice!
All right! Now all we need is some decent bullpen work. (Hmm.)
Sweeee, Sweeeee, Sweeeeeet!!
Good, screw the umps. That’s the way to keep them out of the game.
I wonder if the umpiring used to be better, or it was just as bad but we just didn’t know it.
Certainly was more difficult to tell before the advent of slo-mo. No offense to the Great Mo.
In his book, Leo Durocher says that when he managed the ‘Stros (1971-1972), the umpires were already not letting you get away with nearly as much as they had used to, and were acting like imperialistic jerks. It’s a biased opinion, of course, but it may be that that has been the trend for decades. No doubt TV had something to do with that even then.
Well, the big gubs did come through.
Great the way Eric Chavez “stepped up.” He’s now outstanding!
I’ll second that.
I’ll third it.
I hate to say it, but with the Yankees’ luck…no, I won’t say it.
Phelps is really the best choice.
WOW!! Phelps in a high leverage situation. Great! I wonder if that’s Girardi or Pena?
Probably just that Robertson threw so many pitches yesterday and Chamberlain hasn’t been any good since coming back.
YES YES YES on the pitch and the catch.
Damn, the tension rises, but at least he kept Fielder in the park. Come on Prince, attempt a steal!
And they lose a great chance for the GIDP.
What is it with balks lately. Toronto scored their first run that way today.
Repeat my balk rant here from yesterday.
yeah, I was thinking it, but it’s your subject. That was an awfully deceptive slip.
This game is going to make me age 5 years.
So then you’ll be 21, right?
Exactly :)
That last fly ball was good for 6 months for me.
I expected a 4-out save for Soriano.
Phelps was shaking his head, unhappy with his performance. I’d disagree. Fielder got a single, and he did slip on the mound, but he popped up Cabrera and whover’s hitting 5th. Did fine.
I agree, he had good stuff. Maybe he was only embarrassed about the slip.
yeah
What do you call a prostitute with a rash? Itchy Ho.
I’m speechless.
But not typeless.
Damn that slo-mo! I was ready to join Stacey.
If Sori doesn’t get the Tigers 1,2,3 he buys all of us high blood pressure meds!
Boy, those guys know their lines.
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
Oh, crap.
Gerald Laird, professional runner.
…….
This could well serve as your wrap-up of the game.
good pitch on Santiago’s hands.
This team is going to make me turn 38 early.
Soriano should send you a bunch of birthday presents.
Dare I hope…?
A one-run win. Miracle of miracles.
THANK GOD
Pull that shirt, pal!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!
On to Toronto where the Yanks can feast on their pitching.
Indeed! Nice job by Soriano. He gave ‘em hope, then shut the door.
Let’s go do better in Toronto.
Chat y’all tomorrow.
Night, all.
