No NOBLETIGER against the Tigers. Phew!

That's gonna be a nice bruise

Nice job TA

So many fucks being caught by the field mic.

Carlos doesn't have the feel for the back foot slider yet.

Good thing they're gonna try to get the game in. Unfortunately this probably means Collins will catch Keuchel. Which will probably be disastrous.

Fuck off Haase.

Hernandez just can't seem to hit the ball hard. You'd think that was hit at 95+ but it was at 92. The ball just does not jump off his bat.

Eloy needs to figure it out these next 2 weeks. He was hurt for the playoffs last year, it'd be a shame if he doesn't contribute this year.

Minimal number of pitches too.

Tigers probably. We're 2 games over since.

The field mic is way too loud.

Cleveland loses. Magic # is 3.

Yup. They had lost 11 straight before today.

Yeah he looks bad. High fastball not playing at all today. Usually he gets a lot of whiffs on those, but it's getting crushed today.

Good to see the Royals finally playing the Indians tough.

Where is Caulfield? We need a post about how this is a trap series.

4-0 Royals after Benintendi homer

McKenzie doesn't have his fastball velocity today. Down 1 MPH on the fastball and hanging breaking pitches. So the Royals might have a shot.

Dozier homers. 2-0 Royals

He's been dreadful in general.

78th percentile sprint speed. So not too bad. He did look a little slow on that ball he scored on from first, but keep in mind that Cesar barely made it into 2nd by the time the throw got back into the infield.

Jose finally gets a day off. What's interesting is that Goodwin is DHing and not Eloy.

100 degree games at the old park sucked, but while this new one might be comfortable, it just doesn't feel like a baseball stadium. Had they made the old one have a retractable roof, they wouldn't have needed this new stadium so quickly.

Magic number down to 4.
