Boom.

Three-run homer by Jhonny Peralta. 3-3 through 5.

Oakland takes a 4-3 lead in the seventh, and then Detroit counters with a fan-interfered HR (that probably still would have been a HR), to tie it.

Tiger on second, no outs, B7

Jackson with a two-out single gives Detroit a 5-4 lead. Holy cow.

Damn I wish I could see this one.

Detroit, with two out in the bottom of the eighth, strings some magic together to blow the game open. With the bases loaded, WP + double make it 8-4 DET.

Oakland, like Atlanta, can't win in the first round.

In the 8th, Oakland loaded the bases with no outs vs Scherzer who was in from the pen. He somehow wriggled off the hook with 2 nasty Ks and screaming liner to center that Jackson caught

Really want TB to win at least today

Boston loads the bases with no outs in the second, Hellickson out, old friend Jamey Wright in

Fred's Brim said...

and he gets out of it without allowing a run. Getting guys to line into double plays doesnt hurt

The thought of facing Boston in the WS and Peavy pitching in Dodger Stadium scares the shit out of me.

Dammit. How many opportunities are the Rays going to give them? Fucking Victorino.

BJ Killeen said...

Me too Cliff. I want to face the Tigers so I can go to games here and there!

Tropicana Field's lighting makes it look like they're playing inside a storage warehouse.
