Really doesn't help when Alexei swings at the first pitch and pops it up in foul territory. If you are going to swing at the first pitch make sure you at least hit it in play.

You hate swinging at the first pitch so much!

Nice job Semien. Abreu looks a lot better at first. Ramirez is playing really well. That was a very good play. He keeps this up and were out of it we might get a good return on him.

 

Danks looking better.

nice coaching

nice coaching

 

I see what you did there

Get a Canadian passport and stay in Windsor.

Unless your are a Canadian citizen or a terrorist with some connections, getting a Canadian passport is going to be pretty tough.

Pretty awful performance by the offense tonight.

way to make Sanchez work

60 percent of our starters are Danks' or Cubans tonight. Random stat of the night.

Anybody besides Semien want to make Sanchez work for an out

Another game of awful recognition of what is/isn't a strike.

yikes. I miss Eaton. And Frank Thomas.

That didn't take long

Its amazing we can score 16 runs one day and can't even get a hit the next.. Sanchez doesn't have great stuff tonight by any means. There has been plenty of hittable pitches

Is that Omar as the 1B coach for Detroit?

Is that Omar as the 1B coach for Detroit?

 

Yes.

Come on Danks

Danks is really effective tonight.

Really nice start by JohnnyD

time to get him the win

Need some runs.

Great job Danks, tucks ERA under 2.9.

Getting Sanchez out of the wind up could be key here. He has barely been in the stretch tonight.

Good start

I wish this offense would get going.

 

Come on Abreu!

Conor!! Lead off double. Lets get him in this time.

 

7 Doubles for Conor.. Nice!
