Except the Sox bullpen is blown. Only Ziegler is reasonably fresh.

Edit: see what I mean?

I think we can count on a loss tonight. We could score 26 runs and it wouldn't be enough. We're lobbing balls into the outfield on force plays, Captain Middlefinger only overshot the cutoff man throwing the ball 15 feet over his head and about 10 feet up the 1st base line, and our pitchers are thrown 3-2 fastballs up towards the batter's nipples.

Instead of Pelfrey, can we just wheel out a BP pitching machine? It would be far more accurate than what Pelfrey's doing.

And now we're getting picked off 2nd base and making the 1st out of the inning at 3B.

JFC. It's like we're taking turns crapping the bed tonight.

EDIT: And if Upton doesn't get picked off 2nd by the freaking catcher, we've got a 2-run lead. Instead Captain Middlefinger is going to make the 3rd out and we're going to have to sweat out a 1-run lead with Ortiz due in the bottom of the 9th.

9-8 final

I'm not very sure how.

Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 9: The Carlos Guillen edition

I was certain that Ortiz was going to pound another one into the bullpen to end it.

Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 9: The Carlos Guillen edition

Now LOOK, Mr. Boyd. Don't go into Mike Pelfrey mode and try to give this all back.

Did they use them all last night?

Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 9: The Carlos Guillen edition

Apparently. Verlander took a 2-hitter into the 9th, but only had a 1-0 lead. That lead is gone.

Re: Detroit Tigers, Volume 9: The Carlos Guillen edition

I'm glad a thunderstorm took out my dish so that I didn't have to watch the 9th inning of this. It isn't 1965 anymore. You need more than 1 run to win, boys.
