It was cold in Minnesota, and so were a couple Tigers bats.. but that didn’t keep them from putting together 4 runs and securing the first win of the season. Verlander pitched 5 scoreless innings and fanned 7. It was nice to see him finally get a win on opening day!
Grab your radios. Turn on the TV (in HD of course). Grab some cold beers and even a bag of peanuts… Sit your ass on the couch, head to a ball park, or belly up at your favorite watering hole. It’s one of the greatest days a year. It already feels a little bit more like summer. Opening Day is here.
The BEAST.
The former White Cap goes oppo on Papelbon
OK, so no Alligator, but that was pretty sweet.
OK, so here is a brief collection of some great heated moments for the Tigers in years past. My favorite might be the Porcello/Youkilis incident. I couldn’t find the DET/KC brawl from 2000 where Farnsworth turned into an MMA fighter; I’ll keep looking!
Soon to come: Leyland Ejection Greatest Hits… that will take some time.
Gary Sheffield. I wouldn’t mess with him, would you?!? Gotta love seeing Cabrera and Martinez in this video… it’s like they knew they would be a feared back to back combo in years to come…
In honor of Rick pitching excellent in his Spring Training debut, here’s a great video of him making Youkilis look like a little bitch…
Carlos was my wife’s favorite player.
Let’s play “Count the Losers!” 1. Laird, 2. Willis, 3. WhiteSox…
I always liked Bondo…. never a huge fan of Delmon…
Brian Knight = Idiot. Verlander = would’ve smoked him with a fastball in the face.
Opening Day… where are you?!?
This reminds me of his son’s performance in the Home Run Derby last year!!
