OT- Tigers and Jays still tied going into 16th inning
In the bottom of the 15th, the Tigers intentionally walked both Melky Cabrera and Jose Bautista to load the bases with two outs. They got out of it thanks to a ground ball induced by McCoy.
Now the Tigers are the beneficiaries of a IBB after 1 out singles from Kinsler and Cabrera.
Legggoo!

Ugh.... Torii grounds into the 1-2-3 double play.
I think we're going to see Nathan here... The city of Detroit may melt down if he gives up a run.
Also, Brad Ausmus was ejected what seems like a day ago.

So who's getting the call up tomorrow, probably Justin Miller, and Angel Nesbitt? Also what exactly does Bryan Holaday bring to the team other than bunting prowess? He's a righty that can't hit lefties and he's a pretty poor defensive catcher.

Bryan Holaday is the greatest hitter East of the Mississippi according to half of Detroit.

Well, hyperbole and all, but you must not listen to Detroit talk radio. Good for you.

Some joke about Danny Worth goes here.

You gotta think at some point someone just hits a homer. There's been so many guys on base, but somehow nobody has crossed homeplate since the 9th.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:00 PM ^
August 10th, 2014 at 7:01 PM ^
One more inning and it will be two games worth of innings in one game.
Cumong man.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:02 PM ^
Tigers have also had 2 overturned calls go against them. Both turned around innings. This would be a great win if they can pull it out.
Gotta get it to the 18th now.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:02 PM ^
So Nathan yesterday, and Joba today have basically forced the Tigers to use their Tuesday starter because they couldn't get 3 outs without giving up a run...
August 10th, 2014 at 7:05 PM ^
Let's not let the offense off the hook either. They haven't scored a run in about 14 innings.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:11 PM ^
Fair enough, I'm just agitated because whoever pitches the 9th inning inevitably gives up a run and the lead. It's like a revolving door of suck in the 9th, regardless of the name on the back of the uniform. A 5 run lead in the 6th inning should be a clean W.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:31 PM ^
The offense was good enough this weekend to sweep, especially with our rotation, our bullpen got us jammed up all three games, with a lucky lucky win on Friday. I can't blame the offense anymore.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:03 PM ^
This is when I hate all of those late-game switches where a guy like J.D. Martinez rides the bench and Don Kelly is out there blowing at-bats because of the incremental defensive improvement. I'd rather have his bat in there versus the off chance Kelly can run down a fly ball.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:54 PM ^
August 10th, 2014 at 9:34 PM ^
and bill buckner. also, jd martinez doesn't make the catch that davis did to end the game the other nite.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:07 PM ^
August 10th, 2014 at 7:08 PM ^
and this is why you don't do defensive switches in the 9th. Also the 2nd overturned call was bullshit.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:12 PM ^
Yep, I was surprised they overturned that second one. Thought it was certainly "not enough visual evidence."
August 10th, 2014 at 7:28 PM ^
quarterbacking in baseball?
August 10th, 2014 at 7:14 PM ^
Well, that was an exciting put out.
Come on Ricky, one more out.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:17 PM ^
Man Porcello's fastball was nasty that last AB. Well done. Don't see Rick get fired up often - let's get that man a run!
August 10th, 2014 at 7:19 PM ^
August 10th, 2014 at 7:19 PM ^
August 10th, 2014 at 7:20 PM ^
Kinsler on the move? Or let Cabby have a shot at a double?
August 10th, 2014 at 7:21 PM ^
August 10th, 2014 at 7:23 PM ^
So... close....
I guess you can't steal now b/c then Toronto takes the bat out of VMart's hands.
August 10th, 2014 at 7:27 PM ^
Holy shit, Torii Hunter...

Toronto's (3) pinchhitters are so far 2 for 16 with 1 BB.
Tigers bullpen has given up 10 walks so far. That's a crazy number if they win.

Hope whoever starts tomorrow can throw a complete game because this bullpen isn't going to be much use.
