did not bet on the game, but watching...really dont understand why they didnt either..makes no sense. and they kept smyly in, makes no sense...tigers clearly dont care if they lose game2
One of the biggest reasons it makes ZERO sense is DET can buy a fukin hit this series let alone a run it seems. You MUST keep it a scoreless game right there. And they 100% had the runner out at home there.
If you bring your infield in with no outs and the bases load, you are asking to give the other team a 4-5 run inning.
It was the right play. As it turned out, Detroit got out of a bases loaded no out jam with only giving up 1 run and they are still in the game instead of being down 4 or 5 runs. That ball would have been hard to throw somebody out at home anyway.
It was good baseball. If Detroit can't score 1 run they don't deserve to win anyway.
I guess it doesn't matter that much. They gave up another run the following inning. Add that to the fact they cannot seem to buy a run anymore and it adds up to another loss. Hopefully they can make it competitive in Detroit. They better. Already their down 2 games to zilch!
Im not watching the game.. but from MLB stupid ass website.. and just stunned in disbelief at the idiot pitchers.. i mean.. im pretty sure I dont have to be watching it to see that Smiley is an A1 screwup... Intentionally walking guys after he just got hammered the inning before by bases loaded.
