Game 93 Thread: July 9 @ Tigers, 10a

Mmmm...Tiger Tails.

Zack Greinke (11-4, 2.66) vs. Max Scherzer (10-3, 3.47)

Breakfast baseball! Again! So, chow down on some Tiger Tails from Donut Man! Zack Greinke goes for a dozen wins. Hopefully, he can find holes in the Tigers' swings.

There's no way they fritter away a five-run lead again, right? Our hopes are raised for an old-fashioned offensive outburst.

Can the Dodgers earn a split, or does a cruller fate await?

I guess people donut comment this early in the morning.

Puig triples, but gets caught off third on Hanley's grounder. D'oh! Nothing in the first.

Hideo Nomo said...

Leadoff triple for the Tigers. Ethier's butterfingers didn't help.

Hideo Nomo said...

1-0 Tigers. Nobody out.

Hideo Nomo said...

2-0 Tigers. Ready to leave Detroit now.

Are we regressing to our mean of "being absolutely terrible against AL teams"?

Hideo Nomo said...

Sounds about right.

Fred's Brim said...

Is this Alex Castellanos chanelling his payback through Nick?

nice work not giving that run right back, Grienke strands the runner at third

Orel said...

Scherzer > Kemp

Hideo Nomo said...

Scherzer's out! Let's go!

Hideo Nomo said...

We can't even hit Jabba?

Hideo Nomo said...

Does Joe Nathan still have that dead arm he had in April?

Fred's Brim said...

Dead Arm > Dead Bats

Fred's Brim said...

Like everyone who ever lived in Detroit said, "Let's get the fuck out of Detroit!"

Hideo Nomo said...

Nope. You're not allowed to make fun of Detroit. I'm learning that in our Twitter @ replies right now. Sheesh.

This team is pathetic. And cost me $5 in a bet. I hate you Donnie.

Fred's Brim said...
