These two breaking pitches to Hunter have been all over.

[browntown653]

LMAO, Casey runs into the tarp.

Nice try by Casey

Easy grounder to Guillen from the bat of Hunter and the Tigers win it. Bonderman with the W and Jones with the 1-2-3 save.

[browntown653]

Hunter grounds it...to Guillen...Tigers win!

[missionhockey21]

Tough loss for Baker with having such a pitch effective game (79 through eight innings.)

[redsrbetter]

1-2-3! Ballgame. I can't believe it was a 1-0 game. Great pitching by both SP. It has to suck to lose after an effort like that. Big win for the Tigers as they stop the surging Twins. Weird to see Baker have an even better game than Bonderman and lose it, but thats baseball sometimes. Great game, and great thread tonight fellas.

MVP: Thames

Oh well 1-0 loss. Thames hit a line drive for a homer. Twins had many chances to win to many men left on base. Baker still pitched an outstanding game against a team that is one of the best hitting teams in the league.

Next up the Suckee's in New York.

You could certainly give the MVP to Thames, but how about a little nod to Bonderman and Baker who were both flat-out brilliant. They both pitched awesome and it was a fun duel to watch.

I'm surprised to see that the game is already over...I thought for sure I'd make it back in time. Well, nice to see the Tigers won anyway

[mntwinsfan]

Jerry Narron was just fired!

Woo Hoo I actually won a bet on the bet thread.

'Twas a fun matchup and thread tonight, hopefully more will join in for the next one. I will try to distribute some rep to those who helped out tonight later on.
