2011 MLB Playoffs

Rangers got another break ... guy thrown out going to 2nd and the ball pops out.

All the breaks have went thier way tonight, but Fister has kept them at bay !

First break the Tigers got was when Cabrera's hit down the RF line stayed fair.

Nice ovation for Fister ...

 

[Jimbo]

Thanks Taco Bell .....

Bad enough we have to hear about Brian Wilson and his beard all year, now that were in the playoffs with NO GIANTS in sight, we have to hear him in a commercial, a very dumb one at that.

Ryan Raburn with a double! He's having a great series!! If he keeps it up I may have to stop calling him Gene Rayburn.

Can Jackson get his 4th hit of the night?

 

[riffjim4069]

Man, I haven't see a sidearmed pitcher in quite a while.

Nope, maybe tomorrow !

 

[Jimbo]

Papa Grande on the mound !

Great play by Cabrara!

What is it with all the towels in the ALCS? I hate them just as much today as I did when the Pittsburgh Steelers starting twirling their Terrible Towels back in the mid-70s. Is it me or does anyone else hate people waiving their snot-rags?

Tigers win Game 3! Tomorrow is still a must win game for the Tigers. Should be a good one.

My guess would be it was a promotional thing tonight.

Great play by Cabrara!

I don't think he really had to dive to make that play, but he made it regardless !

Man, how tall is Ken Rosenthal, he looked about 5ft interviewing Fister (6'8")

It looks like he could catch without knee pads.

I'm just hoping Porcello comes-out and gives us six strong inning and no more than two runs tomorrow afternoon.

I'll take that !

Thanks MLB (or FOX), we have to deal with another game played in the SHADOWS, 4:19 start.

You know, I'm getting tired of the ignorant Fox coverage team portraying Doug Fister as a sub-par pitcher before coming to Detroit and "turning his season around". Sure, the guy had a 3-12 record while in Seattle prior to being traded, but he also had a very good 3.11 ERA - he just didn't get any run support with the Mariners. Heck, I'm surprised his ERA didn't balloon to 5 or 6 because it's hard to pitch when your offense only gives you 1.97 runs per game.

Again, Fister was a good pitcher prior to coming to Detroit...but he is now a stellar pitcher playing for a team that gives him a few runs each game.

Just my two cents. I think I've heard TBS/Fox inaccurately report his story a half-dozen times so far.

Good game tonight you guys!! Hopefully the Rangers can answer back in game 4.

NOT !!!!

2-2 would be much more appealing !
