Too bad Miggy isn't hitting very well this year.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:29 PM ^
I just saw the video, and he also boxes like a 14 year old girl.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:31 PM ^
Too bad we still don't have Kyle Farnsworth. He was Likes To Fight Guy, and he was good at it.
August 24th, 2017 at 5:17 PM ^
I remember he like lifted up some dude on the Royals over his head and slammed him down and I thought that was the coolest thing I had ever seen.
August 24th, 2017 at 5:04 PM ^
Then it looks like his teammate jumps on top of him? This allows the catcher to take control in the ground game.
August 24th, 2017 at 5:31 PM ^
by not even hitting his weight this year.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:29 PM ^
classic.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:32 PM ^
McCann just got beaned, too. You could hear it hit helmet over the radio.
A few guys are going to sit down for a few days, and some checkbooks are going to be a bit lighter.
This is a shitshow.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:32 PM ^
NY relief pitcher and bench coach ejected for this one.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:32 PM ^
Now Hicks gets hit. Back to back HBPs.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:33 PM ^
Probably that best fight we will see all weekend...
August 24th, 2017 at 4:33 PM ^
Dislike this Tigers team. There's nothing to enjoy about them anymore.
Miggy's about done, or close to it. JV's not going to be around much longer. Who else do they have that honestly is fun or exciting to watch outside of Fulmer?
August 24th, 2017 at 4:53 PM ^
JD Marti -- aw shit
August 24th, 2017 at 5:01 PM ^
Could be a Padre fan. At least, we have Petco
August 24th, 2017 at 5:10 PM ^
the weather.
August 24th, 2017 at 5:35 PM ^
there's some Grade A talent on the way. Petco will be rocking this time next year!

A little perspective for you Uncle Leo--Even if Miggy has this same bad year 5 more times in a row he will end up with close to 600 HR, 2000 RBI, and 3300 hits. Those are crazy 1st ballot HOF numbers. That being said, it's okay if he has a bad year. Hardly anyone goes through a career without one. I'm with you on not watching this team but I just think it's important to keep perspective when it comes to one of the greatest hitters the game has ever seen.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:33 PM ^
I could see a couple 10 game suspensions coming down from up on high after this.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:35 PM ^
Miggy and Sanchez
August 24th, 2017 at 4:40 PM ^
Yup.
Betances is probably going to sit for 5-7, too, for beaning McCann with a fastball after WWIII erupted at home plate.
August 24th, 2017 at 5:07 PM ^
Austin Romine (who happens to be Andrew's brother) was catching for NYY -- Sanchez was DHing before the fracas.
EDIT: Watched the video again and Sanchez definitely threw some sucker punches there. What a punk.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:33 PM ^
The Tigers gave up a three run lead in the top of the next inning. Seems to have fired up the Yankees more than the Tigers.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:36 PM ^
Disagrees with you
August 24th, 2017 at 4:34 PM ^
...and now Hicks got hit by a pitch. That's two this inning.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:35 PM ^
Tiger punks. Kick some ass, Yankees!
August 24th, 2017 at 4:45 PM ^
Clarence.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:58 PM ^
and a dick

Why not rumble when you're 569 games under .500?
August 24th, 2017 at 4:37 PM ^
A double post as weak as a Miggy 1-2
August 24th, 2017 at 4:39 PM ^
I would like to see you and FauxMo in that situation against Miggy. I am sure you would look like Mayweather out there.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:57 PM ^
Like Mayweather, I would run.
August 24th, 2017 at 5:10 PM ^
Typical Kimble, will only fight people with one arm.
August 24th, 2017 at 5:10 PM ^
... didn't know you could run.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:44 PM ^
There have been 8 outs recorded in the last 68 minutes of this game. College football season is going to kick off before this game ends.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:45 PM ^
Not sure if anyone saw #24 from the Yankees, back-up catcher...dude was throwing multiple punches while one of our guys was being held down. Possibly McCann. I can't believe they didn't eject him.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:48 PM ^
That was Gary Sanchez sucker-punching Cabrera.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:54 PM ^
Sanchez on Castellanos
"Backup catcher" is prolly AL player of the month. Yankees are gonna miss him
August 24th, 2017 at 4:49 PM ^
by Fulmer the inning before that and thought it was on purpose (it did not look like it was on purpose, though).
The league office will get a good look at this one. Suspensions and fines are forthcoming.....
August 24th, 2017 at 4:49 PM ^
Most interesting Tigers game of the year
August 24th, 2017 at 4:50 PM ^
If you tried to argue about the silliness of this with a baseball fan, you'd get "IT'S TRADITION!" in response.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:52 PM ^
Alex Wilson plunked someone and got the gate. Benches empty. Again.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:54 PM ^
And again...lol this is quite the spectacle.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:55 PM ^
At least the pitchers are getting their cardio in.
August 24th, 2017 at 4:58 PM ^
I'm not a Yank fan but they are in a pennant race, wildcard at the least, they need to get their shit together before they finish the season out starting their AAA team. #24 on Yanks needs to sit for a few games, hope the league office eyeballs that scrum.
August 24th, 2017 at 5:04 PM ^
Exactly - they are the big losers in this mess. Fuck the Yankees!
August 24th, 2017 at 5:00 PM ^
Good news fans, the Tigers are showing signs of life for the first time in months! As a matter of fact they appear to be beating the crap out of each other.
