Game Day Discussion


Verlander Crusing
So far in three innings of work, Justin Verlander has allowed just one hit and struck out three. He has been sitting at 93-95 MPH.

Comerica Park changes names in 2027
After fifth third bank purchased Comerica Bank, they’re going to change the name of where the Tigers play to Fifth Third Park. Yep, that’s it.

Kenley Jansen might have saved the season
Every game matters for the Tigers right now. A few wins or losses could be the difference between being buyers and sellers. And who knows what's possible if Detroit gets back in the race?
With that in mind, Kenley Jansen could have saved the season at Wrigley Field last night. A 3-0 count with the bases loaded and the game on the line, and he battled back to strike out Alex Bregman, showing why he's a future Hall of Famer.

We Have A Rare A.J. Hinch Ejection
As much as I love our local crew, I wanted to post the Mets broadcast version of this call, because even they couldn’t believe this was overturned. I know that it’s an automatic ejection when a manager argues a replay review, regardless of the call, but AJ was well within his rights to do so. I think that this is actually going to go a long way with the fans. They needed to show some fire. 

Gage Workman Homered In His First Tiger AB
This is not Workman's first major league hit, as he did have some time with the Cubs as a rule 5 pick, but it is his first home run with the organization that drafted him back in 2020. Not only is this a huge moment for Workman, maybe we look at this as a potential turning point.

Now Kerry Carpenter Is Injured
Lost in the action that was this inside the park homer by Bobby Witt, Kerry Carpenter slammed into a way and apparently injured his shoulder and had to leave the game. More reports likely to come soon.

MATTY V LEADOFF HOMER!
Man, it's really too bad Detroit handed Boston 3 runs in the first inning. Poor defense continues to be this team's undoing, but now it's time to rally. Hopefully Vierling starts to heat up

TORK SMASH!
Riley breaks up the perfect game with a walk, then Tork breaks up the no-hitter AND the scoreless tie with a no doubt blast. That's a 1-1 swing

This Is Why We Have ABS
I know that Detroit was on the negative side of this, but I couldn't help but laugh. I understand that no one is perfect, but man...

Apparently, Tarik Skubal Can Pitch In The 7th Inning
Kids, this is what we call "emptying the tank." Just in case we needed a reminder of how good this guy is.
