man, this is starting to get real frustrating, we cant even do the little things like getting maggs over to third with less than two outs.

How much of this is royals pitching and how much of it is Tigers hitting?

Its not like the Tigers are striking out all that much.

I'm watching on gameday and keep seeing 2-0, 3-1 counts and then Hit, Out(s) recorded, pop up to third base, pop up to second base.

Bondo is out of the game. 6 and 1/3 innings. 3 runs. Can the Tigs overcome this lead or will they be swept?? Stay Tuned!

does any one else like clete thomas? i think he is a decent looking ballplayer. he definately doesnt get cheated on this swings. in fact, he has looked more comfortable at the plate than most of the every day players.

There's no point in getting into another Inge discussion. Probably shouldn't have said a word... I just dislike all the Inge-bashers, regardless of his disinterest in catching, etc...

The point is - he was more than adequate/solid in CF the past two games, and when called on he's been his normal stellar defense at 3B... And he's 2-2 with a walk on another day that we otherwise are swinging at ping-pong-balls. He'll have his share of stinker games for sure, but he will always be a gamer. And WHEN he's called on to C this season - he'll do it, and be good at it.
