because the Tigers don't deserve more effort than one game thread for the rest of the year.

What I can take from this game: Larish sucks.

Make some hay in this series.

Vazquez and Buehrle are the next two we face, we've always done well vs. Contreras (2-0 this year in 3 stats) but Buehrle and Javier usually own us...

Wouldn't shock me if we drop the next two...

Brent Clevlen gets two hits last night, and throws a seed to home to throw out Carlos Quentin, and he's rewarded by getting his first day off since coming up...

Leylands lineups = dumb

Not to mention, Pudge I think had 3 hits last night, why not let him try and put together a strand of solid games to get somethin' going?

It's like he draws names out of a hat sometimes...

The Million Dollar Question: What the fuck is wrong with Justin Verlander?

Suck dat!

Marcus. Yard. 3-0.

Or is the million dollar question: Has Marcus Thames earned the right to play every day yet?

This series is ovah! Send Chicago on to their next town. No sense playing these out.

I don't understand why pitchers throw Thames fastballs, he can't hit anything else...

QFT

I'm not sure all these pitchers can get their junk across the plate. They have to go to mama.

Don't look now, but JV is 1/3rd of the way to his 2nd career no-hitter.

and he's only thrown 21 pitches through 3 innings

also, as a side note this is only the 3rd time this season, that the Tigs have scored more than 2 runs in a Justin Verlander start...

incredible...

Good lord, Larish is fucking terrible.

He has no waggle during the pitchers wind up. No wonder he's behind everything.

Good lord, Larish is fucking terrible.


I know, it's a tough watch seeing him swing at those high fastballs...Vazquez is just toying with him...

bring back Joyce...

Who the fuck called that guy up? He doesn't look ready for the bigs at all.

They threw Thames another fastball but way WAY outside. They just showed it to him.

Who the fuck called that guy up? He doesn't look ready for the bigs at all.

Believe it or not, Larish was our 2nd highest rated prospect behind Porcello.

That shows you what our offseason was like...

Larish looks like a sheepish child up there....

JV has his no hitter filth tonight...

if it happens, i called it first

shit, nevermind

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?

No shit, Wil, don't you know when or how to shut the fuck up? You are a true master of the jinx-art.

I also expect us to lose the game now because of your epic failing ways.

FUCK YOU WIL.

In the first at bat after you mention the no-no, no less.

He was so close.

Had Ledezma not jinxed it, Justin would've been only 5 innings away. I hope you're happy, Wil.

...Maybe you are.

ARE YOU FROM CHICAGO?!

Wil Faggot le Dipshit.

Wil Faggot le Dipshit.

Alright, that sucked.

LIKE WIL.

I know! This whole thread sucks like the Tigers.

Which is why it must keep going, all season long.

Man, I'd hate to see what our record is since the All Star Break last year.

I'd hate to see us go on a winning streak or something.

http://img254.imageshack.us/img254/3127/dombrowski1oq6.jpg

I figured we'd be on a 6 game losing streak right now, so I'll take two against Cleveland and two against Chicago (so far).

DOUBLE BACON CHEEZBURGER

The Million Dollar Question: What the fuck is wrong with Justin Verlander?

NOTHING!

Really though, I think Justin went after hitters for the first time in a while rather than trying to paint corners. His stuff is good enough where he can do that as long as he keeps changing speeds and levels.

The million dollar question: Can the Tigers win more than 2 in a row?

It was good reverse psychology, instead of Wils.

Maggs JUST missed. Come on Miggs.

I LOVE THIS TEAM

Game.

Ka Boom.

HOW CAN YOU NOT EMBRACE THIS LOVABLE BUNCH OF OVERACHIEVERS?

That was a fun game. Great ending.

Thatta boy, Cabrera. I knew you had it in you.

http://wtfdetroit.com/miscpics/tigerssweep.jpg

Wizzle, if you jinx this team again by violating the sacred picture I swear to Zekyl I'll have you banned. Or at least pretend to.

2nd game we've won scoring less than 4 runs...

Good win.

Forgot about the day game. Can someone call me, text me, PM me, email me, mobi alert me or something next time there is a day game.

go to your nearby little caesars and pick up a wallet size schedule...


wait, you live in sacto right?

Yep, Sac.

is little ceasars in your market yet?

No. We are a deprived area.

if it wasn't for the "swear to Zekyl" line this would have upset me


(andyoujustkeeplivinginyourpretendworldwherethatpi cturemakessense)

If the radar is any indication, tiggers probably won't play tonight.

GET DOWN WITCHA BAD SELF MARCUS

ahmando is hurt :(

oh man that looked like that hurt.

Let's go now.

"Ain't no line drive hard enough to hurt me. Get that shit outta here. I fuck nuclear waste"

Armando Galarraga is the toughest Armando Galarraga out there.

Sick breaking ball for the K!

Armando Galarraga is the toughest Armando Galarraga out there.

Let it be known, he don't shove peeps.

We about had a replay of yesterday there.

Yeah, for a sec I thought so too.

Why the fuck is Larish batting sixth? He has been horrendous if not dead.

Don't know what Clevelan was doing there.

being new

Well, he is only one D away from being total trash...

fugin Galarraga is a badass. zero friggin runs.

Pkshh!

Except he spells it Clevlen... Regardless, the mere homophony renders him nearly useless.

Except he spells it Clevlen...

I'm on to him... he knows where his family's really from.

Jump back!
What's that sound?

Galarraga is going to win the next 10 Cy Youngs.

Pkshh!

^ Oh yeah, it's Friday.

And the boy graduated yesterday. I'm really proud. here we go

clear the benches bitches

And the boy graduated yesterday. I'm really proud. here we go

Tell him I said congrats.

"Some Douche said congrats..."

Fuckin Cabrera saw everything. He was ready

Fuck WAde. Loke at him jaw with CG. That fuck

Yes, congrats.

Damn, I would've been pissed if they fought and we got some guys suspended. Thankfully we were smarter than that.

^ *look*

This is the kind of thing we've needed for a long long time.

I was about ready to fuck a pillow up.

Maggs! FUCK YALL BITCHES FUCK YALL

YEA BABY

Watch this that pitcher drills someone. Then we fight

Did you guys see that chick in the yellow skirt? Nice friggin legs right there.

Damnit I missed it.

OT... Tahoe, does your wife have an obsession with purses?

Larish. What the fuck.

As I was saying the boy graduated. I'm proud. And his party is tomorrow after commencements. He has sober grad night after the party. Then off to college. He's deciding between 2. Good for him. He has so many more opportunities than I had. I guess thats what life is all about. Make our kids lives better than ours.

Now back to the fugin game...

OT... Tahoe, does your wife have an obsession with purses?

No.

Between what two colleges is the boy deciding?

dun!

He was accepted at a couple different UC's. Not UC Berkeley, tough to get in there, but the college I hope he goes to is Cal Poly. Great Engineering School. He's in to all that Calculus and shit. I was doing some construction calc the other day and he takes an interest in it.

If not, there is a JC really close that has works in conjunction with ALL the UC's, where you go there for 2 years and you are in at UC Berkeley or whatever. They have a great Engineering program too.

Ooooh, do you use any programs like MatLab, or Maple, or anything along those lines?

Thats more software engineering, right? He's doing more structural engineering, or I hope he'll go in that direction. I'm a builder and use a couple different structural engineers, but if he goes to Cal Poly I'll (as in me) will be the last thing he needs to get a job.

I can't quite explain it but is uncharacteritically interested in Urban development, or redevelopment. I hope he starts far above where I will leave off in life.

Galaalragagralargagra is just so damn solid.

I've been telling you guys for months, Armandomania is here!
Catch the fever!

Seriously, where the hell did this guy come from?

Texas, the team that's had the worst pitching numbers for like the last decade, put Armando on waivers this year...

Jon Daniels = asshat, we pretty much got him for free...

Tahoe, why doesn't the boy post here?

Or does he?

Tahoe's very protective of his property.

Bonine, P


- Not sure why Larish keeps seeing his name in the lineup, especially in the 6 hole...

Time to bring up Hessman, Larish needs more polish in Toledo...

Cabrera HR, 4-3 LA.

Thames HR, 5-4 Tigers.

Honeycutt... lol.

Mt. Tigers Offense has erupted...

LOL Bonine got player of the game from FOX

Well, he did have the best game of his career.

At least Bonine will face another offensively challenged team in his next start...

We're going to have to find a 5th starter at some point though...

and it can't be Virgil Vasquez...

maybe put Miner or Fossum in the rotation

As of now, it's Bonine, bitch.

Nice turn by Miggy.

hopefully, Kershaw won't be back out due to the delay...

he's still just a pup

PP

Thames and Inge go back to back

FUckin bitches, fuckin bitches! Marcus has hit a couple breaking balls deep lately, and Inge with an Ingespiring play!

Bobby Seay Seay Seay You Later!

I was watching Tiger tee off, did Todd put these 2 on?

Todd gave up Kemp and Kent's hits, Seay started this off.

FUCK

Can you say 6 games out?

Jones comes through again with another clutch performance.

Or wait, the CWS lost right? I have to stop asking these questions and goo look this stuff up myself.

Jones comes through again with another clutch performance.

2 Sweeps in a row. 10 game winning streak, iirc.

Sox are still batting in the bottom of the 9th, down 3-5, with a runner on 3rd.

Fixed.

2 Sweeps in a row. 6 game winning streak, iirc.

Sox are still batting in the bottom of the 9th, down 3-5, with a runner on 3rd and I probably jinxed us by saying they had already lost when they really hadn't because now they have the bases loaded

We have won 8 out of our last 10.

Jesus Christ, the rockies almost dropped that last out. 6 games back. You're excused Tahoe.

I thought we lost the first 2 vs Injuns and won the last 2.

Damn near fell into Wil's Jinx status. I was worried.

I thought we lost the first 2 vs Injuns and won the last 2.

Lost first, won the second and the third, then dropped the finale.

Verlander and Lincecum tomorra.

Should be a good opne tonight, Lincecum's the real deal. Hopefully we can get to him. If Verlander's roughed up by this Giants Offense, we're in some trouble. They're Terr-A-Bull.

GD...No he doesn't post here. His fingers are worn out from texting his friends. If he's not texting them, he's at their house, or over here swimming. Just not his bag. Plus he's a MLB Giants fan, Raiders fan and SJ Shark fan and a Kings fan. thx for asking.

4th homer in the last 4 games for Marcus, 1-0 Tigers.

His last 6 hits are all HR's.

That is amazing.

Bad play by Hollimon, he had time. Oh well.

TAke dat mfers

His last 6 hits are all HR's.

Make that 7.

Last 7 now have been HRs. Giants announcers are even shocked.

THAMES IS GOD!!!

Oh shit son. Marcus fucking Thames.

Looks like Pudge was out to me. Too bad for the Giants. Deal with it.

Damn it!

Rodney had him 2 strikes and served one up. 3 run homer.

6-4 Giants

Ouch.

I was just thinking today that Leyland was making some great decisions with the club lately. Then he brings in Rodney in a pressure situation, and he proceeds to blow the game wide open with crappy pitching.

I'm going to bed. Better luck next time, Tigers.

An ugly at-bat by Renteria with the bases loaded.

8-6

LOL

Polanco trying to sell a hit by pitch...

Nice attempt at a comeback.

This was Rodney's first game back right? Bad pitch, but he looked like he had that snap back.

Can't win em all.

Just keep Wilfreda from coming in here and saying shit...

Dolsi > Rodney?

Dolsi needs to go back down to AA, he had that one solid outing Vs. Cleveland where he struck out Peralta & Francisco, but other than that he's been shaky...

send Dolsi down when Zumaya comes back...

Thames doing it in the outfield too.

Pudge 1st pitch swinging screwed that scoring opp there.

SideBurn goes yard...2-1 Tigs

Raburn Rowns.

8 hits, 8 hrs for mad man.

Oh for fuck's sake Jonesy.

I mean, nice work Jonesy.

Oh for fuck's sake Jonesy.


lol, that's hilarious...this gets my vote for post of the year

game on.

http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/boxscore?gid=280618126

Got two quick ones.

Shoulda had more...

MoTown vs 'MoTown

Shoulda drafted 'Melo

Raburn Rowns.

Apparently a guy who writes for the SF Chronicle doesn't think so!


Adding to the wickedness was the fact that Sanchez was beaten not by one of Detroit's high-salaried thumpers, but a .219-hitting scrub named Ryan Raburn, who pinch-hit for Kenny Rogers in the eighth inning and broke a 1-1 tie with a homer three-fourths of the way up the left-field bleachers - Andres Galarraga territory.

http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2008/06/17/SPD011AJOH.DTL&feed=rss.sports


Rod and Mario were just talking about it.

God Bless Barry Zito.

MoTown vs 'MoTown

I see what you did there...

I'm lost. But whatever...

Carry on.

How does MoTwon fit into this?

I will tell you that MoTwon approves of all my posts. MoTwon loves it when I give DrTre11-style beatdowns to people.


Haven't been here in a bit, but looks like MoTown just waxed your ass {random poster that MoTown kills}. You posted a bunch of shit that was wrong and he called you on it. Now you're whining like a little bitch because your embarrassed. Sometimes you gotta take your lumps like a man and walk away while you can. You posted like 18 paragraphs homeboy and The MoTown ripped it to shreds, deal wit it.

^omigod

That was epic.

Top of 1st. Giants announcer after PP singles..."PP has some ownage on Zito"

1st and 2nd, 1 out. Mags up.

Mags with nice single to drive in PP.

1-0 Tigs

Oh baby...Cabs with a single. Solid gol damn contact right there.

2-0 Tigs.

Zito can lick an entire pile of donkey dung, imo. Go Tigers!

Fugin Pudge. That ball was at his eyes.

due to lack of shit happening we take you to the top of the 2nd.

Galarraga with the walk. lol

And Rent walks too.

PP with another douce for Zito.

3-0 Tigers.

CG baby...knocks in 2.

5-0 Tigs.

Giants scored 1 in there someplae.

Just saw the Rod Allen charge of the pitcher in Japan. Funny as hell.

Top of 4th 2 on, 1 out. cabs up.

Cabs with hard hit liner that 3rd bagger couldn't handle. Runner from 2nd scores.

6-1. Giants suck.

7-1 Tigs.

I'm so confused. Did you know you were watching the replay?

hahahhahahahha. Did you think it was odd the sun was beaming the entire time?

That's hilarious.

No way, was it? alsoiwatcheditfrommytivorecording

From like ten pages back: I stickied it.

Wow, this is better (or worse) than anything Ledezma has ever done.

It's made it easier to find, that's all I was going for.

Guy was clearly on to something.

Tahoe,

Please TIVO the game tonight and do more play by play for us.

It would have to have been online when Tahoe was posting last night.

You could have fucked with him by predicting what was going to happen next in the game.

Would have blown his mind.

I tivo'd the game yesterday before I left. I came home and thought I could get some idea what happened in the game by coming to WTF Detroit and looking up the game thread. But y'all were so fucking lame I couldn't even tell who won the damn game. I had to look it up.

So since we won, I thought I'd do the game thread some justice and do a lil pbp.

y'all a buncha weak mo fos.

I'm having fun watching the Rockies pound Zekyl's team lately.

HAHA. That's what I thought at first, then I convinced myself otherwise because it was alot funnierthe other way. Good show.

It was gold the other way. And what the fuck are you guys talking about "this thread is working?"

STFU, you are wrong and have learned nothing.

Let's all assemble to the secret Tahoe forum and discuss this further.

Glenn, go in the SeCret TAHoe Room.

Get down witcha bad self Curtis!

Shit. Son of a bitch. I missed it.

Your priorities are fucked, Tahoe. Nobody cares about Iran.

Thank god the Shock game ended in time. I would have been pissed missing a lead-off homer for crappy basketball and shrieking girls.

pkksssshh

Fool will be dealing with you shortly.

Oh

Wow-- Bonine is not impressive. 88 mph fastballs and hanging breakers? No thank you.

Anybody else getting crappy announcing here? Very loud, then very soft. Poor compression or something get it together tech guys.

MAKE HIM PAY BONINER!

Nice to see the good defense. We might need it to bail Bonine out.

Tigers are soooooo much better with Grandy in the lineup.

And PP Ks. Make a liar out of me PP.

Pkshhh!

^ What's the drink of choice tonight, hov?

Coors Light.

Worked out pretty hard for the first time in a while today. Getting ready to build the next house. Coors Light helps keep the weight off.

BTW...You've NEVER ever even had a drop of alcohol, or tried it and didn't like it?

That was a strike Mags. At least it looked like it on TIVO.

BTW...You've NEVER ever even had a drop of alcohol, or tried it and didn't like it?

Of course I've had some... who hasn't?

Props to you for not indulging, or over-indulging. <--sp?

Nah, man... you're a hero of mine.
