Seattle has the advantage as the home team. Hold them then score a run. Too bad they haven’t gotten the second part down … yet.

ETA: Another double play to end the inning?!

Another clutch DP for the Tigers. Man, I told my father-in-law yesterday if the Tigers score three, they win. I’m still not wrong.

Interesting to bring a starter in with a runner on. I think I would stick with Bazardo here.

I like both the Tigers and Mariners, and I was telling a friend I wished they could just combine teams and beat the Dodgers.

And if they did that, their combined payroll would still be less than the Dodgers’.

The MVP of the game should be the winning team’s pitching staff.

That’s what got him the job as primary catcher over Rogers. He’s money.

I said two things about tonight: Tigers gotta score three runs and don’t put Kahnle in this fucking game. We didn’t and Hinch did. Ugh.

Great game, and good luck beating the Jays.
