BASEBALL I went to a baseball game. The only RBI’s from the Tigers came from Brennan Boesch and Delmon Young. Really. Boesch hit a line drive that just cleared the fence in dead center. Young hit a 1-2 pitch outside the strike zone into the Tigers pen for a three run homer. Verlander started for […]
MoreBASEBALL Briefly- Scherzer pitched 8 scoreless and the Tigers won 5-1. Avisail Garcia walked and hit an RBI single in his first full game in the major leagues. The Tigers drew within one game of the Central Division leading White Sox. The White Sox are 1-7 in Detroit and 4-9 overall versus Detroit this year.

The Tigers had stranded 12 runners when I quit counting. The only runs in the 3-1 victory came from home runs by Dunn, Jackson […]

Then we tried our luck getting the StubHub Ultimate Seats. We found the person giving them out. We must not fit the demographic […]
MoreBASEBALL I tracked the record of the AL Central teams from the zenith of Cleveland’s season until now. This grid has all sorts of fairness problems. For instance, the schedule over a subset of the season is even more unbalanced than over an entire season. Obviously this is particulartly mis-representative for Cleveland as I picked […]
