Tigers @ Astros, April 14, 2021

So to close the book on McCullers…3.2 IP, 6 runs on 4 hits, all earned, walked 3, struck out 3, hit 2.

Not saying it has anything to do with anything, but Smith only threw 4.2 innings in the Spring. Was he hurt at some point?

T4:

Nunez…bases loaded…0-2…1-2…taps past the mound, Correa charges and nips Nunez to end the inning

But Tigers increase the lead…6-0

Someone else can do some PBP…I feel like Jason Castro must…I’ve caught a whole game in the 4th inning.

A HIT!!!

Lance didn’t do himself any favors, but if he’d been working with the same strike zone Fulmer is, this may be quite a different ball game.

An EXTRA BASE HIT!

Why is this game being played at all? Why couldn’t it have been postponed, like the entire Mets / Nationals series was?

Shoot.

Love watching Yuli uncoil like that.

Did you forget the Mets play in New York?

Astros don’t get the consideration the rest of the league gets. Remember after Ike (was it?) they were forced to play a home game in Selig’s Milwaukee?

No teams get the consideration the Mets and Yankees do. The baseball sun rises, shines, and sets in New York City. It has since the beginning. Just the way it is.

That opening series being cancelled was not a boon to the Mets. It was a boon to the Nationals. The Mets were pretty severely inconvenienced.

This is pretty ridiculous.

Castro!

Jason Blastro!

YES! A couple runs! Way to go, Castro!

Way up the batters eye.

If Smith doesn’t shit the bed, this is a 1-run game now.

Tigers are certainly leading in time of possession.
