Keep the Faith

The Detroit Tigers are in New York today, to play the Yankees at 7. I know it’s a long shot, but I’m going to make a prediction now, before the game starts. The Tigers are going to beat the Yankees tonight. Then they’re going to beat the Yankees again tomorrow and Sunday.

The New York Yankees are currently at the top of the American League East, with 36 wins and 15 losses, while the Tigers are in fourth place in the American League Central, with 21 wins and 30 losses. I don’t care. My prediction will stand unless the opposite happens.

Keep the faith.

Cheap Beer

A case of eight 16oz cans of beer costs around six bucks from Dollar General. That’s a steal.

Budweiser used to be my favorite cheap beer, but then I started liking Miller Lite better. Today, I decided to revisit Budweiser and see if there’s really much difference between the two beers.

Tigers and Guardians are tied. 4th inning.

Streak

The Tigers just swept the Orioles. This is the first three games in a row that they’ve won since the season started. Hope the streak continues.

Tomorrow, they’re playing the Ray’s at the cursed stadium of Tampa Bay.

I’m going to cook pork steaks for supper. Getting real hungry.

Bacon, Baseball and Chickens

To the neighbor cooking bacon this evening. Mighty thoughtful of you. I’ll meet your challenge in the morning.

Anyway, the Tigers and Athletics had a doubleheader today. I didn’t see much of either game. We watched the last few innings of the afternoon game at my mom and dad’s house. The Tigers kicked ass, 6-0, and they ended the losing streak.

However, they seem hellbent on starting a new losing streak. The evening game just ended with the Athletics winning, 0-4.

My brother and I helped Dad expand the chicken pen.

Losing Streak Continues

This losing streak is dragging. Baez was ejected in the 9th when he argued with the ump. The pitch looked to me like it missed the strike zone too, but what do I know?

Then Miggy struck out, then Schoop. If someone had just gotten a decent hit there at the end, they might’ve turned it around.

0-2, Athletics.

Det-Hou

I thought Justin Verlander was done recovering from his surgery. I saw him in the Astros’ dugout the other day, but I haven’t seen him pitching in this series.

It’s the top of 3rd, 0-0, one out.

8-17

Baez played real hard tonight, I thought. Did you see how he dirtied up his uniform? Though he didn’t make it in himself, he played a big part in getting in the second run for the Tigers. The Tigers still lost. The game finished up with 2-3.

They’re 8-17 for the season, so far. It’s looking like another losing season. But I can live with it. I’m just happy to have baseball. Though none of the Detroit teams have been showing much promise, they are and will always be my favorite teams. I will always love the Detroit Tigers, Lions, Pistons and Red Wings.
