OT: Tigers World Series Journey - Game 2
Fister vs. Miilone. First pitch at 12:07. Would be a really big win for the Tigers to start the playoffs 2-0 and only need to take 1 of 3 out in Oakland.
Bless You Boys has a good preview up.
Go Tigers!

This years 2- 3 ALDS format may benefit us big time.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:14 PM ^
I'm not a believer in the idea that this format favors the underdog. I liked it better when we were going to New York and getting a split, thus putting the pressure on the Yankees. Did that twice. Now the pressure's on us not to split.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:03 PM ^
My brother and I decided 2 hours ago to go to the game. We live in Grand Rapids. Hoping to make the bottom of the first.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:17 PM ^
Make it?
October 7th, 2012 at 6:33 PM ^
Walked in during the top of the 2nd. Probably worth the $20 tix.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:06 PM ^
is this game not on any of the "regular" channels? According to my TV its only on the mlb network, which I don't get.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:10 PM ^
Same. Wtf MLB?
October 7th, 2012 at 12:14 PM ^
Same issue.
All I've found so far is a radio stream.
If anyone finds a video stream, they should post.
Here's the radio stream: http://player.streamtheworld.com/liveplayer.php?callsign=WTKAAM
It's way behind though...
October 7th, 2012 at 12:12 PM ^
There is nothing on firstrowsports. Does anyone have a stream?
October 7th, 2012 at 12:13 PM ^
I have MLB Network, but if George Walden is calling this game, somewhere, anywhere, I want a link.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:13 PM ^
like I understand the NFL doing this for their Thursday/Saturday games, but wtf? We're talkin about the playoffs!
October 7th, 2012 at 12:13 PM ^
WTF camera angle on last out in top of 1st? Talk about missing the play and then running to a commercial.
Fister looked tough though 1-2-3
October 7th, 2012 at 12:20 PM ^
1. Putting the game on mLB Network is a joke.
2. MLB Network having technical difficulties and not even broadcasting the 1st inning is an even bigger joke.
Way to fuck up MLB.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:24 PM ^
There were no problems with mine. MLB network actually does a really good job. You need to stop your bitching.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:27 PM ^
Well they just showed the guys in the booth for me, apologizing because they weren't getting the feed.
They joined in on the Fielder AB.
I'll bitch when its called for, which it was.
October 7th, 2012 at 2:30 PM ^
Pay the extra $10 for the sports pack. It isn't that hard to get the MLB network.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:35 PM ^
Looks like Fister is on his way to another one of his K-splosions.
October 7th, 2012 at 12:46 PM ^
Bases loaded, but sadly, nothing comes of it. Still I like to see us getting to their starter early.
October 7th, 2012 at 1:04 PM ^
Avisail with the rifle!
October 7th, 2012 at 1:57 PM ^
MLB network? I would like to watch it..
October 7th, 2012 at 2:20 PM ^
In NFL news, Stevie Brown (yes THAT Stevie Brown) has an INT and a FR for the Giants against the Browns.
October 7th, 2012 at 6:39 PM ^
is doing quite well as an understudy-makes-good story in NY. He made an interception on almost his first play going in for the injured starter a couple weeks ago, and today's plays were both game-changers. (I was in the midst of New Yorkers where I got to see a couple minutes of the Tigers game before they switched over to football. But I got my revenge by knowing more about Stevie Brown than they did.)
October 7th, 2012 at 2:25 PM ^
TIGERS SCORE TWO OFF OF A BLOOP (AND AN ERROR FROM COCO CRISP) FROM MIGUEL 3-2 TIGERS.
October 7th, 2012 at 2:30 PM ^
up for Crisp hitting a ridiculous and improbably homer off Verlander
October 7th, 2012 at 2:25 PM ^
That is why you don't basket-catch the ball. 3-2 Tigers!
October 7th, 2012 at 2:30 PM ^
Not sure he could've reached it otherwise. Would've at least been an awkward reach.
That's the benefit of having a guy like Cabrera. Crisp was playing in Canada; anyone else and he probably could've reached it easily.
October 7th, 2012 at 2:28 PM ^
A 2 out, 2 run outfield error is nearly Bucknerian.
October 7th, 2012 at 2:29 PM ^
will be lack of scoring late in the season just like the Red Wings. This team has been getting magnificent pitching for the last two weeks, they really need to start hitting. These gifted runs by the opposition won't last in the post-season.
and with that thought, Austin Jackson starts a two out rally in the 7th with a basehit followed by an Infante hit. Cabrera reaches on an error scoring two runs.
Tigers 3, A's 2 into the 8th, guess we can expect Benoit and long flyball to the base of the wall this inning.
October 7th, 2012 at 2:36 PM ^
Good job holding runners on base guys.
October 7th, 2012 at 2:38 PM ^
Benoit has been a dumpster fire in the second half.
October 7th, 2012 at 2:39 PM ^
Well on the bright side that would have scored the run from first too
October 7th, 2012 at 2:40 PM ^
Son of a dick.
Benoit gets beat by the long ball. Again. Story of his season.
October 7th, 2012 at 2:41 PM ^
nuff said
October 7th, 2012 at 2:41 PM ^
Eff me...
October 7th, 2012 at 2:43 PM ^
So I am kinda tired of our Bullpen. Coke and Benoit seem to get beat by the long ball, and Valverde is just so stressful to watch.
October 7th, 2012 at 2:45 PM ^
that first run was on laird.
who knows what would have happened if it was just a wild pitch
October 7th, 2012 at 2:46 PM ^
with only TWO pitches is UNACCEPTABLE
October 7th, 2012 at 2:47 PM ^
Most relievers have only 2 solid pitches, with maybe a third or fourth they can get away with every once in a blue moon. If they have 3 or more, they're probably going to be more valuable as a starter.
October 7th, 2012 at 3:01 PM ^
then one of those pitches needs to be a breaking ball
October 7th, 2012 at 2:49 PM ^
Delmon starts out the 8th inning with a single. Rally time Tigers!
October 7th, 2012 at 2:54 PM ^
Nice bunt by The Neck. Cmon Q, time to become a hero!
October 7th, 2012 at 2:57 PM ^
TYING RUN SCORES ON A WILD PITCH!
October 7th, 2012 at 2:57 PM ^
A's trying to give us this one!!!
October 7th, 2012 at 2:59 PM ^
That was not a strike
October 7th, 2012 at 2:59 PM ^
Bad call on that third strike on Avila, but the game's even now at least
October 7th, 2012 at 3:00 PM ^
didnt look like a strike...but got lucky with the pass ball
