Detroit backers check in. this is not a team to be faded.

[zoo youk]

KC has lost 4 straight, 3 in a to Detroit. Detroit back in first place all while Miguel Cabrera has gone 1-11 in this series. Doug will be Fisting the Royals hard today.

now on to Luis Mendoza. In his last three starts he gave up 4 home runs and a combined 20 hits over that three game stretch. In his only start against the Tigers this year, he went five innings and gave up seven hits and six earned runs. Lifetime he is 1-1 with a 9.30 ERA against Detroit.

Detroit.

[stevenash]

The meat of the line up (Gordon, Butler, Moose) have demonstrated they can hit Fister in the past.
I'm not ga-ga on the Fister in this spot, but best of luck to all.

Fister hasn't looked very sharp lately either.

His last start against the White Sox got ugly in a hurry. I know he shut down the Twinks last time out, but big deal. Gave up 4 runs and 8 hits in his last start vs. KC.

This was an excellent call, well played.
I did not want any part of this play, but you nailed it.
I respect that.

Fister has his way with a pretty good KC line up that hit him in the past.
This shows be a few things.
This shows me Mr. Fister can show up and deliver in a big, big start his team needed him to step up in.
It also shows me Mr. Fister made adjustments from the previous time he faced KC.
Sign of a pro pitcher.

Nice play Zoo ! Enjoy this win, I can respect a poster that posts a play with insight to back it up.

[Deuce]

They still may lose.

[stevenash]

I started to write my previous post up he had a 2 hit 7 inning shutout

WTF HAPPENED !!!!!!!!!!

[Aeiou1x2]

F.cking Detroit manager. he should've changed the pitcher right after 4-2

[Deuce]

4-4 game

[zoo youk]
