In other news, Chris Young is in the middle of a perfect game after 6 innings.

And the Tigers take the lead, 5-4

:curtis: rbi single

5-4

Chris Young is perfect through 7 innings against the Brewers...

The twins announcers have been criticizing the new school crap of pitchers not being allowed to complete games. The one announcer was a pitcher and he said he finished 40 percent of the games he started! Jack Morris, who was a tiger pitcher, is now a radio announcer for the Twins, and he said the best thing that ever happened to him, was to pitch under Sparky Anderson when he was a tiger pitcher. Sparky made his pitchers stay in the game, when they were in a tight situation, and Jack said it made him a tougher pitcher when Sparky made him finish his starts! I agree, this pitch count stuff is crap!

throws a 1-2-3 6th inning!

HOME RUN MAGGLIO ORDONEZ!!!

6-4

If they're doing good, then sure let them finish the game. But if they give up 8 runs in less than an inning, I wouldn't let them pitch the whole game

E5, Cabrera on 2nd.

Yay Maggs!!!

Gabe Kapler's homer ruins the perfect game and no-hitter...

true, they were talking about 0 to 2 runs scoring, they just feel pitchers are made to think their job is 6 innings or less!

Matt Joyce will now be in LF.

I'm turning on the game now.

Span.

It's official, I hate Span. Right up there with Melvin Mora. Freaken Tiger Killers.

wild pitch puts runner on second.

Singles. runners on 1st and 3rd.

Matt makes the catch in LF, but a run scores. 2 outs.

7-5 Tigers. Morneau has 4 RBI this game.

For those interested, Young finished the game with a 2-hitter. Pinch hitter Mat Gamel got the other hit.

inning over.

Farnsworth is warming up....
