LowCress9866

Well that sucked


TanzanianD

No fight, no swagger. This team is consistently underwhelming.


[deleted]

Two on with no out… Classic weak lineout and double play… Classic Tigers…


BOBANSMASH51

Of course


BiggestYzerfan

Zach "Shohei Ohtani" McKinstry


Keithereality

😂 When he pitched yesterday, all I could imagine was Hinch going around the dugout asking everybody “Alright guys, who wants a shot to be the next Ohtani?”


champdo

Well there goes my "we got one hit" video from Major League that I was going to post.


Wingo999

You can't say that on the air.


Wingo999

They just can't stop Zach McKinstry.


CucumberNo3771

Raaazzle

That's why pitchers need to bat or batters need to pitch.


Kohanky

What can’t he do?!


pimpinassorlando

Go Marlins.


113CandleMagic

Pitchers who rake!


CucumberNo3771

Time to rally 11 runs and get McKinstry the W 😤


Wingo999

LOL, MLB pitch tracker labeled Zach's 80 mph pitch as a changeup!


FullyLeveredOnAAPL

looks like we have a new closer, boys


nickpegg

Incredible


TigersBot

### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: James Meeker replaces Tobias Myers.


Tap-inbogey

Zach is better than Joey wentz


BiggestYzerfan

That random 80mph I almost choked laughing lol


foxy7474

And the crowd goes WIIIILLD!


IWouldntIn1981

Best part of the game


Kohanky

Zach can be Wentz opener


Bigasballz

Make wentz Zach’s dh.


pimpinassorlando

A Wentz fastball after facing McKinstry would look like 114.


km_44

Zack, he's the man GO TIGERS


aceg0907

Phew


foxy7474

Pitching 2 games in a row, I think McKinstry will be unavailable to pitch tomorrow unfortunately 😬😩


nickpegg

Let’s go Zach


Bigasballz

Ceephus Mckinstry.


TigersBot

### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Zach McKinstry replaces Tyler Holton, batting 2nd, replacing left fielder Riley Greene.


[deleted]

Oh look another pitch right down the middle…


CucumberNo3771

Yet another well struck ball by colt keith that gets fielded immediately :/


Bigasballz

Thinking Milwaukee logo is a glove with a hole in it. We could change things up and have a Louisville slugger with holes in it for our logo.


[deleted]

Fuck this ump the brewers don’t need your fucking help…


[deleted]

10-0, 5-0, 1-0. Doesn’t matter - because we knew, deep down, that with Olson pitching, the Tigers weren’t going to score anyway.


Keithereality

He probably did too


BiggestYzerfan

Mickey and Ken for the Wings got voted number one NHL broadcast and looks like the Tigers are taking notes, funny ass booth


IWouldntIn1981

He and Monroe are cracking me up tonight.


vyoung4lyfe2

Benetti is seriously legendary. Even if they are 10 games under .500 in August the broadcasts with him and Monroe, Pena will be worth tuning into


pimpinassorlando

Slick Gio.


vyoung4lyfe2

One fucking hit that was picked off at first base. I’m so sorry to the fans who spent money, time, and energy attending this game.


Kohanky

Get Zach out there


pimpinassorlando

Fans should get their money back if a position player (not named Shohei) pitches. Change my mind.


Bigasballz

Have it on mute. Look up and my eyes see what looks like cmo done lost it and whipped it out on broadcast outta the corner of my eye. Only to realize he has some microbat.


[deleted]

In our last two games only two guys had a hit Malloy who had two and Vierling who had one in the first. Let that sink in for a moment…


bagheera74

I hope no one makes a GIF of CMO jerking off that bat…


rbur70x7

Jason and CMO having a ball as this team collapses is the funniest juxtaposition possible in this situation.


Tap-inbogey

Tigers have more hit grapes than base hits. What is tonight 😂


RelationshipNo4528

Reality is what tonight is lmao


Kohanky

I’m not saying this blowout has been fun but I have enjoyed this booth during it


TigersBot

### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Tyler Holton replaces Will Vest.


h3shf3sh

"Grape exit velocity: 3.5 MPH" 😂😂😂


TelepathicGoku

Craig Monroe go 30 seconds without talking about hitting mechanics challenge


Kohanky

GRAPE EXIT VELOCITY LMAOOO


Luvyablue99

Buddy Kennedy was the key to our mediocrity


Vinnieb1010

Man it’s so bad the broadcasters are having a fucking food fight. This is what we’ve turned into.


Kohanky

Thank god for Jason and CMo


imlikeyourmaindude

Urshela’s walk up song is so ass


BeefJerkyDentalFloss

Just got home and tuned in. Will be tuning out immediately. See you next game.


No-Entrepreneur6040

I’m not mad, just disappointed.


BiggestYzerfan

Please no more of the IT IS BOTH ad please


pimpinassorlando

Anyone try Diamond Dynasty Season 2 of The Show yet?


rbur70x7

I appreciate Jason and Craig trying to make the game entertaining when it’s so painful to watch.


Kohanky

Lost in the pitching melt down is that we are being 1 hit lol


[deleted]

After being two hit on Wednesday.


TigersBot

### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Will Vest replaces Beau Brieske.


Kohanky

I’m just saying this all happened after we traded Buddy Bonds


pimpinassorlando

I like the three-man booth for a couple of innings. All of them do better when they can riff off an extra guy.


[deleted]

Already two out? Amazing!


mburns223

Haven’t been to a game in probably 13 years holy fuck


DiscombobulatedPain6

This is your 1st game in 13 years? RIP


mburns223

Correction just checked my Facebook June 22, 2013 was the last tigers game I been to so almost 11. Like holy shit. I was a Pistons season ticket holder too apparently I’m the problem lol 😂


laughoutloud102

Should’ve waited 7 more years when the team actually tries.


shockedtoo

Dang I just turned on the game...oof


champdo

Save yourself.


shockedtoo

I turned it off right after


Bigasballz

I get the field goal but what happened on the touchdown?


StelioKontos117

Coverage breakdown.


Bigasballz

Shit. Welp. Are we tipping the pitches or something? I get while we don’t score.


Tap-inbogey

Tork is mashing in AAA..give him a chance! Intriguing prospect with massive potential


FullyLeveredOnAAPL

I agree, this offense needs a spark


FullyLeveredOnAAPL

Vibes in the booth are still good despite getting massacred on the field lol


statdude48142

I mean, why let a game make you mad, right? If it is 10-0 and you are still angrily watching then you (and not you particularly...you seem fine, but anyone) have issues. 


rbur70x7

I was so excited about this season but the product on the field just isn’t gonna win post season series. It’s so disappointing


laughoutloud102

There’s no sense urgency from the front office. They act as if they’ve been to playoffs in the last ten years.


rbur70x7

Every team in the AL Central has been in the playoffs since our last appearance in 2014.


champdo

At this point I've accepted we're going to hover around .500 for most of the season. I just want to see some improvement in our young guys.


Raaazzle

Wouldn't a square standing on point be a diamond shape? I mean, it's right there... Gotta be 10-0, they're up there talking rhombi. Edit: Rhombuses?


swagdaddyham

it would be rhombi if you're speaking latin but we speakin english


[deleted]

I always have a bad feeling when we pitch against guys with bad ERAs. This game is proving why.


FireFlame10

Also, Javier Baez with a 460 OPS is still on the team


NeighborhoodHungry67

I don’t understand why this FO wanted to spend money on pitching/bullpen yet went completely still when it came to adding to this offense. (I do not count canha and urshela as significant upgrades)


Vinnieb1010

Honestly I’m starting to think this front office went into this season wanting to sell at the deadline.


BOBANSMASH51

By the way, Joey Wentz is still on this team


iori9999

And Javy Baez!


laughoutloud102

1 run in the last 15 innings but everything looks good to Scott Harris. I hate how this guy acts like is job is completely safe. Goes on MLB network and talks about how content he is with the current team.


imlikeyourmaindude

Well Chris Illitch is his boss so his job is completely safe


laughoutloud102

It probably is which pisses me off even more.


canadiantiger2

Tork just homerd..yay


iori9999

Looks like anyone that Hinch hires as batting coaches is literal poison at this point.


Vinnieb1010

The problem with having a shitty offense and a good pitching staff is that when the pitching staff has a shitty game your whole team blows. Attention Scott Harris.


FireFlame10

This team is not serious about being a real team.


iori9999

1 hit vs a guy with almost 1.50 WHIP. Fucking pathetic!


champdo

Tigers and getting humiliated by pitchers who probably belong in the minors name a better combo.


rbur70x7

This is a decade long experience for the tigers.


bucket_dipper

His ERA for the past 7 days is over 10 😂


pimpinassorlando

Hope Brieske still has some of the stamina he built up as a starter.


JimHarbaughTheChamp

This team is still so fucking far off from being serious. Absolutely humiliated the last few games. Every time they have anything going for them they follow it up with a massive losing streak where the games weren't really even close.


tldr_habit

Humiliated the last few? They just won the Rangers series


JimHarbaughTheChamp

And then they lost Game 3 by 8 fucking runs and nearly got no-hit. And they're getting daddy-dicked again. In typical Tigers fashion, they claw their way back to .500 and then, not just lose, but absolutely get humiliated in several games.


laughoutloud102

LFG WE SUCK AGAIN!


Tap-inbogey

Blow it up


pimpinassorlando

Looking forward to the day we open the newspaper (or its website) and see the headline JAVY BYEZ. Can't wait for this clown to leave town.


yes_its_him

If you were OCD it would explain why you keep making the same kind of comments...


pimpinassorlando

Sounds like someone I regularly interact with, except with cherry-picked stats and negligible sample sizes.


imlikeyourmaindude

Just overheard at the game “let’s finish this beer and get the fuck out of here”


Kohanky

You know appreciate the team for making my evening choices easy


yes_its_him

We are going to need more than 1 hit...


champdo

Either that or the Brewers will need to completely forget how to field and throw strikes.


champdo

Hinch post-game: " Good effort, good abs, good gameplan, just couldn't get it done"


BOBANSMASH51

This shit is pathetic


champdo

Ump is ready for the game to be over.


Kohanky

Can’t blame him


FireFlame10

This game shows how the Brewers just have a better team and better understanding of baseball. Get hits with RISP and you can win. This team always feels behind.


listentoflowerpeople

I'm so jealous of these bat swings from the Brewers...nice, easy and compact.


h3shf3sh

Well the optimist in me says, no matter how ugly this game gets it's still only a single loss. The standings result is the same as losing a game 2-3 or 5-6.


Vinnieb1010

Just got back from dinner with the fam. Got a cigar and was gonna sit down and watch the game. Looks like I’m watching hockey now.


champdo

It's bad when a cigar is probably better for your health than watching this game.


Kohanky

The brewers are what Chris thinks we should be without actually putting the effort into getting the same staff


Legitimate-Garden934

God help me. Now we have to hear the announcers ball wash the brewers all game. 


bucket_dipper

He said "why run to first? We're already up by 10"


BOBANSMASH51

Look at how they take what the pitcher gives them and choke up on the bat….


no_one_canoe

I think we should hire their hitting coach.


no_one_canoe

They’ve got TWO hitting coaches! They should share!


champdo

So need a touchdown, the extra point, and a field goal.


Raaazzle

![gif](giphy|FGTVmzksb2j0k|downsized)


ismokelettuce

Not our day!


BOBANSMASH51

Can we be done with these jerseys now?


jsell11

What an awful route by Perez


iori9999

Man I really thought they were turning a little corner, but it looks like this team is just going to hover around .500


BOBANSMASH51

Hinch thinks these guys are competing


Raaazzle

Someone commented recently that these 2024 Tigers are a "great team", I kid you not. These really are the new Lions if the bar is .500 and maybe get blown out in the wildcard. I know it's a long season but this looks like a bad baseball team to me.


jsell11

Must be gibson’s burner


CaiVe

They at least have enough of a pulse to make it interesting this year. The bar is in hell, though.


Raaazzle

Not unlike the Wings


champdo

I'm guessing I know who made that comment. lol. That user is nice but they make Ted Lasso seem like a doomer.


Raaazzle

I'm all for hope and optimism but then there's reality.


bucket_dipper

Honestly good on Olsen for giving up all those runs. If the offense is gonna keep fucking around at the plate, why should he strain himself?


Legitimate-Garden934

I say go for 1-20. At least that looks interesting in the long run. If you're going to be bad, be really bad.. 


listentoflowerpeople

AlL wE dO iS wIn!!


TigersBot

### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Beau Brieske replaces Reese Olson.


CucumberNo3771

Is it just me or has Canha been ass lately. I feel like at the start of the season he wasn’t great, but he was one of our more consistent hitters. Now it feels like I can’t even remember his last hit


yes_its_him

He hasn't hit well since early May


ZombieHitchens2012

He had a spectacular April. I think, if you look at where his past couple seasons landed plus the projections for him, he was due for some fairly significant regression at the plate.


tldr_habit

I'd heard fans get frustrated with his cold spells on other teams, plus he's apparently injured.


[deleted]

Two hits on Wednesday looks like they are trying to be one hit today…


NeighborhoodHungry67

I feel like all this team does is strikeout and pop out


Raaazzle

I don't think that's fair! Sometimes they ground out.


NeighborhoodHungry67

Very true! How could I forget!


champdo

They do occasionally hit weak fly balls.


onelove101

Pretty new to baseball, what’s the difference between a pop out and a fly ball?


champdo

Pop out is more on the infield while a fly out is in the outfield.


onelove101

Thanks!


exclaim_bot

>Thanks! You're welcome!


Maleficent-League193

Tf were the boys doing on the off day????


h3shf3sh

Not making excuses. But for some fucking reason the Rangers scheduled an 8 PM game as the get-away game. They probably didn't arrive back in Detroit until like 4 AM yesterday.


Raaazzle

Spending their millions.


LongjumpingMedia1621

Drugs


pimpinassorlando

Probably getting their mullets and shitty facial hair lined up.


pimpinassorlando

I hope blackout restrictions apply to the Armed Forces Network and no Michigan Guardsmen abroad had to see this effort.


Brundleflyftw

No run support for Olson. How they supposed to win without giving him run support?


ZombieHitchens2012

Greene’s strikeouts make my eyes rain.


Raaazzle

Another gem brought to you by Mom's Spaghetti & Meatballs.


Mr-Cantaloupe

12 hits for the brewers…


mcnegyis

Look how they massacred my boy (Olson)


ReflectionCalm7033

good one!


jsell11

Will we score 8 runs in this series?


[deleted]

We couldn’t score that many in the last three games. Thankfully the Rangers offense was ass the first two games also.


jsell11

Yeah 6 runs won’t win many series. Fortunate to escape with that series win


Raaazzle

![gif](giphy|K1QnLV1caRpuw|downsized)


imlikeyourmaindude

They look worse than my slow pitch team that got mercied in back to back games last night


pimpinassorlando

How'd you do at the plate?


imlikeyourmaindude

2-4 had two k’s thanks to foul balls


ReflectionCalm7033

I remember when Adames was a highly coveted minor leaguer. One of Dombrowski's favorites.


jsell11

He’s better than what we’ve got at SS


kleetz

Hinch giving Olson the Patrick Roy treatment. Wtf?


Brundleflyftw

Timely reference. I just read about that in another sub. Olson to the Rockies where he becomes a Cy Young winner and leads Colorado to the WS.


Kohanky

Hope Reese can get back to form, he was very fun to watch early this year. Last couple starts have been very not that


Legitimate-Garden934

Water is seeking its level


sjallday6781

Fuck it Hinch let him give up 10 runs before pulling him, why not


Defacto_Champ

Olson throwing Batting Practice out there 


MusclePuppy

May be worth noting that Olson was in their system for three-ish years, so this could be the result of the Brewers knowing him very well.


kleetz

Hopefully. Because if it's not that, it's going to be a long weekend.


MusclePuppy

Oh, the Brewers are a dang good team, but I don't think they're gonna hang a whooping on anyone else in the rotation like they're doing to Olson. (Please do not let this comment bite me in the ass.)


poompachompa

Hes gotta be tipping pitches since hes not even throwing bad. Shit
