I think the Leyland HOF article on ESPN.com was written before the IBB last nite...

and JH, what office is left for Cruz to run for if he walks-off in the Series clincher?

I'm running out of presidencies. What's next? Galaxy? Stratosphere?

Avila woke up.

Verlander is throwing too many pitches, especially with Benoit and Valverde unavailable. He is throwing absolute gas right now though. Not sure if it's just the gameday, but he seems to be getting squeezed on some of these pitches.

Man, if only the middle of the Phillies' lineup was 1/3 as Clutch as the Rangers' middle...

Completely unrelated but did you see this Will? Things getting a little tense with the Iggles:

I think these three look a lot like each other.

Why is Jackson still the leadoff hitter for the Tigers. It seems like he strikes out every at bat. Santiago should take the leadoff sport and bat jackson 8 or 9.

Talk about a NASTY hop...

Miggy lucked out on that one.

Delmon Young needs to settle a little bit... He went nuts on that pitch.

 

[SilverandBlack]

Man where has this kind of offense been this series. Delmon Young is a beast this post season

Well see you in Game 6....

[Zymco]

First player to ever hit five in an lcs

First ever natural cycle in a postseason.

I want all 4 of those guys on an OMLB.

I wouldn't pitch to Cruz anymore unless he is up with no one on, and more than a one run lead. He's single-handedly won all the games for Texas. It could potentially be 3-1 Detroit without his play.

I couldnt agree more. I also think they need to drop Jackson in the lineup he strikes out way to much. The Tigers need to get runs early and Jackson's strikeouts dont help anything.
