It is absolutely amazing that a man with the foresight to acquire Dewon Day, Danks, Aardsma, Thornton, Jenks, etc., can stick with Darrin Erstad. Watching this performance only further confuses me.

So Drays+Tigers=95 percent of blacks in the league?

Dammit, Crede

LOL. Nice AB Mack

nice pitch there to k mack

Chad Durbin is simply unhittable!! A legend in the making!

What a s***ty inning.

That was a .....stellar offensive inning.

If Erstad's hitting like this in mid may they won't continue sticking with him. The only guy hitting his more than his weight is Thome. Erstad's bat will be fine.

At least our offense is consistent.

What gives you this confidence?

Tough inning here for Danks.

Nice change Danks.

Danks might be fatiguing. His fastball is down this inning.

What gives you this confidence?

When he's been healthy, he's hit. Erstad doesn't look that horrible. Look at some of Crede's, Dye's and Paulie's swings. If you think they'll snap out of it, Darrin should as well.

Nice work to get him back after 3-0 Danksy.

Well done, gets the out after going 3-0.

2 out

Where the f*** was that 1-0 pitch to Sheff?

This zone is so tiny.

2 hits, 2 homeruns through 5 for us...must be the cold...no, its almost 70 degrees in Detroit...hmm, what do we blame now?

Both those 1-0 and 2-0 pitches could've been strikes.

What's the pitch count at? Anyone?

Nice squeeze job by the ump.

87 pitch count

When did he hit well?
