The first Subway Series matchup of the season features a pitching duel that, a few years ago, would have sounded completely ridiculous.

Game #44 GameThread: Jays @ Tigers

I’m happy to have a series that’s not against the Rays. And it is on Apple TV. Stupid MLB. I’ve been to Comerica Park once, for one game. We’d gone to Lansing to watch the Lugnuts and the Tigers had a day game, while the Lugnuts were playing in the evening. So there was time […]

On Thursday afternoon, Homer Bush Jr laced a line drive that just kept carrying. It quickly soared over the starting pitcher, Owen Murphy. The middle infields jogged lazily into shallow center field as they began to line up for a potential relay throw, but quickly realized it was not going to happen. Then center fielder […]
