Because our offense has done their disappearing act. Not saying "series." Just i don't think tonight is our night.

we are unfortunately in times when states compete with states for jobs, instead of creating jobs

Surprise these bastards Inge

**chasfh** · 10-09-2011, 12:01 AM

If that's the best Inge can do with 3 and 1, we just might be doomed.

**tigerfanfromchicago** · 10-09-2011, 12:02 AM

Brandon draws a walk.

**wolverinefan** · 10-09-2011, 12:02 AM

Inge walks

**TheBigD** · 10-09-2011, 12:02 AM

Nice walk for Inge...

A small one that does the low end stuff.

They are gonna funnel all the work back here. But only cause it was an epic failure out west and they panicked. Very, very good people still don't ahve jobs cause they turned their back on Detroit and went for cali.

**IdahoBert** · 10-09-2011, 12:02 AM

No politics in the game thread please.

**illmatic774** · 10-09-2011, 12:02 AM

Well this inning isn't a complete failure because at least Jackson doesn't get to start next inning.

**Boattown Tiger** · 10-09-2011, 12:03 AM

we will take the walk..if only Alex would have been patient.

**Titus Tiger** · 10-09-2011, 12:03 AM

clutch walk for Inge

mr. halloween

**TigersSlappy** · 10-09-2011, 12:03 AM

Stay patient AJ....

**NeedMoreLike84** · 10-09-2011, 12:03 AM

Get. On. Base. Let the real hitters come up.

**TheBigD** · 10-09-2011, 12:03 AM

C'mon AJax, lock down that ALCS MVP...

I think McCann and Leo Burnett still do GM work as well...and I think both still have Detroit offices? For the record GM does a ton for Detroit...including pumping 20 plus million into United Way recently...

Not politics. Business....(smiley or whatever.)

I like Francona suggesting the Tigers would be ok with Inge getting caught stealing because Jackson could lead off the next inning, ah yes, the dream scenario of Austin Jackson being up first

**illmatic774** · 10-09-2011, 12:04 AM

So freaking awful...

Didn't Jackson's double start the offense and lead to a run in the 5th.

**waffel** · 10-09-2011, 12:04 AM

Incoming strikeout

I picked Peralta to the LCS MVP back in the spring.

I may do the unthinkable and go to bed during a Tiger playoff game. DVR it and watch it when I get up before finding out what happened.

**TheBigD** · 10-09-2011, 12:05 AM

LOL @ Francona saying that we might send Inge since Jackson could lead off next inning even if he gets caught...that being said I have enjoyed listening to Terry a lot tonight.

Right. On small pieces of business. But it doesn't excuse the huge amounts of jobs they were willing to just abandoned to go to Cali. Sorry. But it's true.
