I wish someone knew, "lost" is an understatement. Maybe he should get a lesson from Tork about getting "found". :razz

Torres 2-for-5, Carp 3-for-5, Tork 2-for-4 and three ribbies, and yes, Riley Greene 3-for-5 with two RBI. What was wrong was simply a lack of home cooking. :blink ...and perhaps facing old friend Michael Lorenzen.

Despite bed wetters and naysayers, Tigers take two in a row from the Royals in convincing fashion, guaranteeing a split at the least. Skubal going in the rubber match.

FWIW, that's not a rubber match. A rubber match is when the series is tied, say 1 and 1, and the third game is the decider.

Mize is pitching today.

I meant Skubal is on the mound Sunday.

One more thing about Tork that we haven't seen in his entire career -- he's delivering big in the clutch! :D A two-out three-run dinger in the fifth this afternoon!

BOOM! There is the series win we were asking for. Now we got Skubal tomorrow for the sweep!

I didn't realize McKinstry had such a rifle arm! He showed it yesterday and just now in RF.

Meanwhile, KC is putting together a series of singles to go up 2-0 on Skubal in the second.

Kriedler down to Toledo. Hitting .105 in 38 at bats with 4 singles, 4 walks and 19 strikeouts.

Jace Jung is coming up to replace him.

It was more than time to send Kreindler down. His bat was anemic and his outfield defense was, at best, average. Let Baez play out there…

3 pitches, 3 strikes. Baez is a fucking bum. The loser had that AB with bases loaded with only 1 out in the bottom of the 4th inning. All of his swings looked awful, too.

I think Baez's hot streak is over. He's back to the loser we know.

Jung has been hitting, but you would think they'd bring up a center fielder- either Hicklen, Jones or even Baddoo (he's still hanging around).

A Baez/McKinstry/occasional Greene CF isn't impressive defensively, but can't be worse than Kreidler.

Just be glad he can play centerfield.
