I can't believe they called him out after that replay. Wow, just wow. The umpiring in this game, especially balls and strikes hasn't been good overall, but I am shocked that replay didn't produce a safe call.
Usually the tie goes to the runner, but they must have thought it wasnt conclusive. Tigers just need to get some hits and not rely on the questionable stuff. Norris is sharp so far. Tigers usually hit him well.
Norris is alternating from sharp to erratic. Probably battling his emotions out there, but his fastball looks good when he's not throwing it at the backstop. Heads up play by Hardy on Kelly at second base, but Schoop drops the ball and could be obstruction. Schoop drops the ball a lot when making plays at second base for some reason.
Det 3 - Bal 12 Det 6 - Bal 7 Bal 2 - Det 1 10 runs for the Tigers and 21 runs for the Orioles. Nelson Cruz continues his personal vengeance against the Tigers. That was a very short MLB post season (for me). Continuing with Football (NFL and College) and Go Wings!
Congrats to Sess and the Orioles. You were the better team and outplayed us. Tough one to swallow and back to the drawing board for the Tigers.
Once again, thanks to all who read, wrote, or participated in any way, shape, or form to this thread. You made my 2014 Tigers season a lot more fun and interesting. It's alway cool to share a game with some friends and thats what we did and the season just flat out flew by. Sure ended in a train wreck tho, but I've sat through some seasons that even sucked and blew more than this one... easily. The Tigers have a lot of work to do... so might make for a busy off-season.
7 Detroit Tigers will be free agents this offseason. Max Scherzer Torii Hunter Victor Martinez Joba Chamberlain Phil Coke Jim Johnson Joel Hanrahan So, who do you guy's want to stay and who goes? Pretty easy for me to decide.
I'd like the top 3 to stay but I know it'll never happen. I think if Max walks you gotta try and get VMart back. He's gonna be looking for 5 years. Its a gamble but hes a key piece if they want to get back in the playoffs. Ill have to see what FAs are available. I'll come up with a wishlist
