Here we go again. Enjoy your Ben Joyce bobblehead. Today we had Jose Soriano versus Tarik Skubal. Can Soriano keep his two seamer down? The batting orders follow:
AAAAAAHHH! It’s an Angels Postgame! Now I got that out of the way, who shall I insult today? Insulting the players and coaches is apparently OK. They can all probably kick my ass, but they can’t see me behind my keyboard. So Nyaaa! … Nyaaa! Neener neener!
Somehow Soriano got out of the first inning without giving up a run. It’s a miracle I tells ya! Zach Neto proceeded to bash a homer. 1-0 Angels. That didn’t take long.
In the third inning, Kyren Paris doubled and Tim Anderson bunted to advance Paris to third. There was a bit of a scrum but no further scoring.
We somehow got out of this inning without losing the whole season. I don’t get it.
Here is a double play.
So anyway, now we get to see that vaunted Tigers offense.
In the top of the Tigers Seventh, Trey Sweeney homered to tie the game. Taylor Ward struck out. Logan O’Hoppe grounded out. Travis d”Arnaud struck out.
Now it was 1-1 in the top of the eighth inning. Is anybody planning to win this? Ryan Zeferjahn held the Tigers to ZIP! The Angels didn’t score in the eighth inning either. Ahem!
Kenley Jansen came in to pitch the ninth inning. He promptly gave up a homer to Riley Greene. it’s OK though, because he also gave up a homer to the next Tiger batter, Colt Keith. 3-1 Tigers. Javy Baez also homered. Ho Hum! 5-1 Tigers. Zach McKinstrey doubled eventually to put Tigers at second and third with two outs. Kenley Jansen was replaced by Jake Eder. “Four, Five, Six, Eight … Who do we all really hate? No worries. A wild pitch then brought in a run. 6-1 Tigers.
Riley Greene homered for the second time in the ninth inning. This was a three run homer. 9-1 Tigers. Ahhh!. Colt Keith flied out. Sheesh!
The top of the Angels order was due to come up. Zach Neto struck out. Nolan Schanuel lined out to the center fielder. Jorge Soler lined out to left. Game over.
