I'm doing this OST a day early b/c I have exams all week...

Gm 1: 5/5, 7:05 PM EST, FSND, Jeremy Bonderman (2-2) Vs. Daisuke Matsuzaka (4-1)

Gm 2: 5/6, 7:05 PM EST, FSND, Tim Wakefield (2-1) Vs. Nate Robertson (1-3)

Gm 3: 5/7, 7:05 PM EST, FSND, Clay Buchholz (2-2) Vs. Armando Galarraga (2-1)

Gm 4: 5/8, 7:05 PM EST, FSND, Josh Beckett (3-2) Vs. Justin Verlander (1-5)


Some tough pitching matchups, lucky for us Beckett hasn't been that great so far this year, but neither has Verlander (although his stuff has looked better the last 2 outings)...

The Tigs are a career 1-2 Vs. Dice-K, they torched him last year at CoPa, and this is our very first time facing Beckett (we didn't face him at all last year)

If the Tigs want to really show us they've turned it around, taking 3/4 would be a good way to do it...

also, it's a shame Sean Casey is on the DL, b/c you know he'd get a mega cheer coming back to CoPa

F Sean Casey's broke ass.

F Sean Casey's broke ass.


he's the only positive thing that happened in our '06 world series debacle

Newbie got a walk in his first major league at-bat. Didn't even swing the bat once.

Finally got one. 4-1 Sox

Like the Pistons, it seems like we don't know which team is going to show up in each game.

I saw some stat where we scored (big number)% of our runs in 4 games this year.

Yeah, we scored more runs in our three game sweep of the Rangers than we did in all of the games before that combined or something like that.

I wish we played Texas every day.

The team should start eating some Taco Bell, because they need some runs badly.

Pretend it was funny.

The team sucks.

Ficksed

Man, I hate watching games when Wakefield pitches...the game completely slows down...

Thank God we're not Tribe fans. Well, except for Zek

I swear we were just a game away from .500 not too long ago...

Too depressing to watch.

I tuned in to watch Galarraga. He has given up 4 thru 5, but I'm impressed. 2 runs came on a BB and dinger, iirc. He's kept their guys timing off pretty much.

8-4 Tigs

oh, we're leading? fancy that...

Surprised?

8-8 now... Anyone surprised?

I more than expected that....

LoL@ this pathetic excuse for a baseball team.

Apparently, on paper don't mean shit... Just ask the Yankees.

What the suck?

Maggs time.

Miggs time.

Sheff time.

I just love to come into threads and say "blow it up". Pistons, Lions, and now, the effing Tigers. What a joke.

Again, LOL.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHH!

This team is going to need a real shake up if things don't shape up... real quick..

man, this is just getting worse, there is no way we should've lost this game...

for this city's sake, lets hope we're the yankees circa 2007, or shit's going to hit the fan

LOL, what the fuck is this, the Detroit Magic?

Boston gives us the game back. Thanks Lugo!

PP for Prez!

HA! Maybe that kind of luck can get us on the ball a little bit!

Damn, that took a lot of energy just to break a 5 game losing streak.

This team is the greatest team in the history of teams!

... and by italic you mean green?

... and by italic you mean green?

Well, originally I had it italic, bold and underlined but I felt that was a bit much. Not a big fan of the green.

Also, i'm not quite sure what I meant, just felt the need to type it.

Hey, thats my schtick!

Entertaining ending.

Lugo must have felt like he had a spotlight on him.

I love seing papelbon blowing a save. Wipe that smirk off his face.

Did you see the koniption fit he threw afterwards in the dugout!? Why is it always the Gatorade cooler's fault when these guys screw up?

big game tonight, Beckett Vs. Verlander...

Good lord is Justin due for just a quality outing with marginal run support about now...

I just love to come into threads and say "blow it up". Pistons, Lions, and now, the effing Tigers. What a joke.

I made a similar post to this in the Pistons vs. Sixers thread after game 3. Then we won 5 playoff games in a row. See, there's a method to my madness.

PP just HBP.

Rod says.. "Beckett was in no way, shape or form was trying to hit PP" WTF Rod?

How the fuck do you know that. I say that POS drilled him as a payback for beating them last night.

Your turn JV.

BTW... it was Becketts first hit batsman all year.

Nice catch by Joyce in left. Almost great.

FSN has a bazillion cameras and really didn't catch it all that well though.

Fuckin' Youkilis...

Boston is getting consistent hitting. Are we ever going to get consistent hitting?

Granderson striking out... a lot.

Tahoe: No, leastways, not for a while, not 'til it's too late.

Where is Wilfredo?
