June 16th. Thats the date of Widger's last hit.

 

Its been a month Widge. A duck snort, a seeing eye single, a walk. Something, please do something today.

ESPN talking about AJ "being in the middle of" Monroe walking into him after the grand slam.

 

They really are looking for something to talk about.

 

 

What happened exactly?

Is it raining in Detroit???

I don't think so. First pitch is delayed until 1:25 though because the tarp was on the field.

Supposedly they have about a 3 hr. window to get this one in. Dark, cloudy, and gloomy at the ballpark it appears.

What happened exactly?

AJ was standing behind the plate, Monroe crosses the plate, celebrates with his teammates, starts to walk towards the dugout and just bumps into AJ. Next time he's up, they talk about something. AJ said Monroe apologized, Monroe said that he was asking about why he'd have to elbow him when he walked into AJ. Neither of the managers had any idea what happened or that anything happened in the press conference.

Thanks for the info

weather.com sez 50 percent chance of scattered thunderstorms from 1 through 5.

 

good chance for a delay or two.

 

hate to see the count go three or four and then get shut down by the rain.

 

I live on the west side of the state and that system rolled through this morning. It doesn't last that long. The game won't be delayed long.

 

And the whole AJ and Monroe deal sounds made up to sell magazines as they say.

 

That kind of crap happens all the time and real professionals like AJ and Monroe don't let it get to them.

f***in good... lets play some BASEBALL!

So every time Contreras makes a mistake today it's Widger's fault right? Just wanted to toe the party line here in the game thread.

Or, you know, whoever isn't perfect. Got it.

 

Nope, just the ones that are grossly underachieving.

But they\'ll be so tired in October.

 

we have to get to october in order to be tired in it....

Count...shut em down and go out and give us the 2nd really good start of the series and a series victory.

 

LETS GO SOX

If you're feeling bad about Ozuna being in there, close your eyes and remember the feeling of seeing Timo in the line up. It helps me.

we got to pitch to get to September.

Beurhle is starting in CF to give Ozzie another lefty bat..... his defense I heard is better than Macks...per ESPN

I hope that we see second half Rogers today instead of first half Rogers.

Widger will blow this game for us, no doubt. Also, BA should be ahead of Widger in the order.

I wonder if he is wearing his oakley blades today.

Ozuna needs to learn how to watch a pitch or two when he's leading off the game.

Oh. Ok.

way to work the count Pablo

And that is a quick 2 outs.

 

Maybe we got a plane to catch.

that was quick

Lookin' good so far. 6 pitches? 5?

that was like 5 pitches, nice start guys.

Disgusting.
